⚠️ GitBook hit by AI agent-driven attack
An attacker accessed infrastructure credentials, which may have exposed API tokens and Git Sync secrets. Services are back. Users should rotate their tokens and re-authenticate MCP.

GitBook detected unauthorized access to parts of its infrastructure on November 2 and says it contained the incident quickly. As a precaution, some services were taken offline and will be restored once systems are confirmed secure. The company describes it as a platform-wide issue affecting a number of customers. The investigation into whether any customer data was affected is ongoing, with confirmation to follow once the review is complete. No user action is required at this time; instructions will be shared after services are restored. Live updates are posted at status.gitbook.com, and a full post-incident report is planned.
