Summary Digital Infrastructure & Cybersecurity Advocates
This cybersecurity news article reports on a leaked source code incident affecting Sweden's e-government platform (CGI Sverige), advocating for public awareness of critical infrastructure vulnerabilities. The content strongly exercises freedom of expression (Article 19) through accessible, transparent reporting on security breaches affecting government systems; however, it creates tensions with privacy protection (Article 12) and property rights (Article 17) by publishing full technical details without apparent redaction or limitation mechanisms.
Rights Tensions 3 pairs
Art 19 ↔ Art 12 — Freedom to impart information about security breaches conflicts with privacy protection for individuals whose data flows through compromised systems; content resolves this by prioritizing transparency over privacy redaction.
Art 19 ↔ Art 17 — Freedom to disclose government infrastructure details conflicts with property rights in state-owned systems; content prioritizes expression by publishing full source code without ownership limitations.
Art 19 ↔ Art 29 — Freedom to express security concerns conflicts with the duty to respect limitations on rights when expression enables harm; content emphasizes disclosure without addressing Article 29 duty to consider others' rights.

The source code is the least of it! From the article:

> citizen PII databases and electronic signing documents were also collected but are being sold separately

teroshan 2026-03-13 10:41 UTC link
Does anyone know if there is the source code for the Swedish Armed Forces - Team Test [1] in the leak? It was a really fun collaborative flash-style game that got popular in my circle of friends for some reason back then.

rebolek 2026-03-13 10:53 UTC link
Maybe they should go open source from the start, then there's nothing to leak.

P.S.: And strangers will sometimes help you find vulnerabilities (and sometimes be very obnoxious but that's not open source's fault).

noosphr 2026-03-13 11:00 UTC link
I like paper documents for this very reason.

It's very hard to steal everyone's documents when they weight about the same as a train.

JensRantil 2026-03-13 11:02 UTC link
I am a Swedish citizen. Lived here for almost 40 years. It is a bit unclear to be what the "the Swedish e-government platform" is. Would have been great if they at least could have published which domain name the service has.
corroclaro 2026-03-13 11:04 UTC link
This keeps happening in Europe with these mega-IT suppliers repeatedly getting exposed using very bad development practices. Sweden most recently had a major breach back in 2024 when the other large IT services supplier TietoEvry had their data centres breached and claimed "not actually an issue of security".

Several government organisations / regional authorities and companies were down. Last I heard several medical journals for whole municipalities were just destroyed.

Unfortunately, the public tender process encourages awarding contracts to these giants that repeatedly fail to deliver on even basic opsec and still believe in security-by-obscurity, are suspicious of things like zero-trust, follow outdated engineering practices. Sigh.

agluszak 2026-03-13 11:28 UTC link
e-government services should be open-sources by default!
wasmitnetzen 2026-03-13 11:28 UTC link
Swedish news has some quotes from authorities that nothing of value has been leaked, and a quote from the service CGI that it only concerns test servers.[1][2]

yaris 2026-03-13 11:37 UTC link
Knowing swedish people's mindset I'm not surprised at all by the breach. What can be mildly surprising is that no major e-gov service has expressed concerns on their websites. Only on skatteverket.se, which is Swedish Tax Service website, there is a vague note on "maintenance work" planned for coming Saturday. Maybe totally unrelated though.

elwebmaster 2026-03-13 12:19 UTC link
Anything taxpayer funded should be open source to begin with.
wayfwdmachine 2026-03-13 12:24 UTC link
Ok, some important context for non-Swedes. Anyone can get access to all Swedish (non-protected but those are a very VERY small subset) personal identification numbers by simply signing an agreement with SPAR[1] (the Swedish national people database). Identification numbers per se are not particularly useful or hard to get, they are effectively public information. Using SPAR you can also get the home (and any additional) addresses of individuals

A Swedish citizen database is... you know. fun. But not exactly hard to get hold of.

[1] https://www.statenspersonadressregister.se/master/start/engl...

bkummel 2026-03-13 13:22 UTC link
I see comments about Swedish personal identification numbers. But the article is about source code that's leaked, not a database of numbers, right? I was thinking: should government source code not be open source anyway?
FpUser 2026-03-13 13:29 UTC link
Unless they hardcode passwords and other juicy details in their source code what's all the fuzz about? It is a publicly funded thingy anyways.
GuB-42 2026-03-13 15:18 UTC link
First reaction: How come the source code is not public in the first place, accessible to every Swedish citizen? They paid for it!

But it turns out that more than the source code was leaked.

Lliora 2026-03-13 15:18 UTC link
Worked on a similar platform. The real risk isn't the code - it's the config files. Government deployments have hardcoded staging credentials, VPN endpoints, and encryption keys that don't get rotated when code leaks. Source is whatever. Those env files are the skeleton key.
vladde 2026-03-13 15:52 UTC link
CGI has a lot of consultants in both government and municipal places (i've worked at both), and some of our main tools like time reporting was built as a addon to our personnel system by consultants at CGI. half my team are consultants from CGI, 4 out of 7 people.

also: hi tavro! it's been a few years, how have you been :D

butz 2026-03-13 16:22 UTC link
Most important question: do Swedish e-government services use curl?
PeterStuer 2026-03-13 17:52 UTC link
Misleading title, as my first thought was "why is Sweden's egov not open source to begin with?".

Turns out it's about data.

dspearson 2026-03-14 11:24 UTC link
It's odd to me, as a Brit, to see that this stuff was not mostly public anyway. (looking at you https://github.com/alphagov)
simonklitj 2026-03-13 10:33 UTC link
Man, you've got to be a real low-life to sell all of that.
AdamN 2026-03-13 10:34 UTC link
Yeah the source code isn't really such a big deal aside from helping to find vulnerabilities. The PII is a real disgrace.
worldsayshi 2026-03-13 10:37 UTC link
I wonder if the focus on source code makes Swedish news slower to jump on this. I haven't seen it in domestic news yet. (Haven't looked too wide though)
jetsetman192 2026-03-13 10:41 UTC link
Encryption keys are mentioned as well.
latexr 2026-03-13 11:07 UTC link

The tender process is what they are optimised for. They are professional project bidders with a bit of outsourced software development bolted on the back.
vladms 2026-03-13 11:26 UTC link
> Unfortunately, the public tender process encourages awarding contracts to these giants that repeatedly fail to deliver on even basic opsec and still believe in security-by-obscurity

So what you think would be the solution ? From what I see (both public tender or not), I would claim that "any large IT project/company will suffer from security issues", so not sure what is the added value to single out a process (the tender) or a region (Europe) if there is no obvious alternative.

yaris 2026-03-13 11:30 UTC link
I would guess that skatteverket.se, polisen.se, kronofogden.se are among those affected by the leak.
queuep 2026-03-13 11:39 UTC link
Interesting, care to elaborate?
nunobrito 2026-03-13 11:41 UTC link
Now there is an additional reason for that.

Public money, public code.

reliablereason 2026-03-13 11:44 UTC link
Nothing in particular, based on my understanding CGI a Swedish IT consultant company was hacked, they have contracts for and are the maintainers and developers of a bunch of various government departments IT services.
ZaoLahma 2026-03-13 11:55 UTC link
Yeah. In these cases it's not like anyone is going to spin up their own instance and start competing with you.

Government / handles society-critical things code should really be public unless there are _really_ good reasons for it not to be, where those reasons are never "we're just not very good at what we're doing and we don't want anyone to find out".

It's not going to be a specific service or agency with a domain name, it's going to be services that are either internal and used by employees only, or that are integrated into other systems that you may be interacting with without knowing it.
whizzter 2026-03-13 12:27 UTC link
As a Swede this is giving me shudders, the statements reeks of paper-pushers and certification-chasers that don't seem to understand fundamental risks of how how threat actors can move around once having established footholds, hopefully there's more competent people down in the trenches.
petcat 2026-03-13 12:27 UTC link
> by simply signing an agreement with SPAR

But that seems like a completely different thing than a nefarious and anonymous person or group having access to the entire database.

picafrost 2026-03-13 12:34 UTC link
I think this is good to highlight for non-Scandinavians.

Scandinavian countries are extremely open and transparent in a way that might be shocking for Americans. For example, in Norway, I can check nearly anyone's brokerage account holdings, addresses, phone numbers, etc. on public websites. I can in theory look up anyone's tax filings.

Personal identification numbers do not tend to be considered private in the same way that social security numbers in the US are.

einr 2026-03-13 12:35 UTC link
Identification numbers per se are not particularly useful or hard to get, they are effectively public information

They are absolutely trivial to get. One click on mrkoll.se.

There is no such thing according to Peder Sjölander, IT Director at the Swedish Tax Agency:

https://www.svt.se/nyheter/inrikes/uppgift-statlig-it-inform...

– Neither our data nor our users' data has been leaked. It is a service we use for e-signatures that has been affected, but there is no data from us or our users there, says

The information that source code was leaked from a joint government e-platform is not true, according to Peder Sjölander.

– There is no such platform. I think the perpetrators in this want people to feel insecure. We feel confident that our data is safe and we have the situation under control before the tax return period opens next week.

teroshan 2026-03-13 14:05 UTC link
Similarly taxpayer funded contracts for any type of infrastructure (obviously I have digital infrastructure powered by proprietary solutions in mind) should only be awarded if interoperability is guaranteed to prevent lock-in and abuse.
ExoticPearTree 2026-03-13 14:13 UTC link
The probleme here is that what tends to happen is that the security requirements are relatively vague and once the customer has signed the acceptance, good luck.

And signing up with a big company is good way to cover your behind, because "if they with all their people and knowledge could not do it...". Basically the mantra or "Nobody was ever fired for buying Cisco".

matsemann 2026-03-13 14:16 UTC link
When I worked for the government in Norway, it slowly changed to all code being developed in the open. 3k repos here now: https://github.com/orgs/navikt/repositories

When I started it was a big security theater. Had to develop on thin clients with no external internet access, for instance. Then they got some great people in charge that modernized everything.

Only drawback is when you quit, you have to make sure to unsubscribe from everything, hehe. When quitting a private company I was just removed from the github org. Here I was as well, but I was still subscribed to lots of repos, issues, PRs,heh.

corroclaro 2026-03-13 15:33 UTC link
I'm pretty sure they did an internal analysis by 8 AM at all these places and came to the conclusion that they're OK.

Of course, they might be wrong!

sandos 2026-03-13 16:16 UTC link
I dont know nothing about this particular leak, but I have worked at Skatteverket.

Let me just say, the likelihood that CGI would have any _actual_ real personal data is close to 0%, at least on servers outside of Skatteverket. I had access to absolutely nothing even working inside. I have never worked in a more closed-down system, maybe excepting the swedish military "complex". No, actually that was less locked down in a way, at least once you were "inside" the system.

johnisgood 2026-03-13 16:59 UTC link
Ideally they should be open.
FateOfNations 2026-03-13 17:55 UTC link
The same attackers are releasing the database of personal information separately (for a fee).

That said, Sweden takes a different approach to PII, so most of that information would have already been public. You can generally just look up any resident and their ID number and other biographical details in a public directory (among other things… their tax returns are also public records).

lysace 2026-03-13 21:38 UTC link
That might be interesting but it’s also completely irrelevant since no PII was actually leaked.

Also, no source code of ”Swedish e-government services” was leaked since that is not a thing:

I sometimes also would like that, but you might reconsider that stance when your country is in war with another one.
