The computer networks of Australia's major political parties were also part by a sophisticated cyber attack by a "state actor" that affected the networks of federal parliament, the prime minister has confirmed.

Scott Morrison says an investigation into a breach of the Australian Parliament House network on February 8 found the networks of the Liberal, Labor and Nationals were also affected.
