Iranian hackers shared unsolicited information they had stolen from former US President Donald Trump's presidential campaign with people who were associated with US President Joe Biden's campaign over the summer, CNN reported, citing federal law enforcement officials.

In a joint statement, the office of the Director of National Intelligence, the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) and the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency announced that Iranian malicious cyber actors in late June and early July "sent unsolicited emails to individuals then associated with President Biden's campaign that contained an excerpt taken from stolen, non-public material from former President Trump's campaign as text in the emails," according to a CNN report.
