Novel Private APN Pivot Let Hackers Sabotage Second Polish Energy Facility

A second Polish energy facility was targeted using a private APN (Access Point Name) as an attack vector, according to CERT.PL. This marks the first known instance of hackers exploiting a private APN for lateral movement and sabotage in critical infrastructure.

Why it matters: Energy infrastructure operators need to assess private APN security immediately, as this novel attack path could affect any facility using mobile connectivity for industrial systems without proper segmentation.
