Stovetop@lemmy.mltoFediverse@lemmy.ml•PSA: Lemmy.world has been compromised! (Edit: Multiple Instances are down)English

1 year agoOne of the admin accounts appears to have been compromised. The owner/other admins appear to be aware now because that account had its admin access revoked and offending posts are being removed.
Definitely opens up a big question about the security of Lemmy instances that I am sure will be discussed over the next few days.
It looks like they’re in the process. The compromised account was demoted from admin and I see posts are being removed. There will definitely need to be some sort of investigation into how this happened, though.
