Ubuntu Forums Hacked
It has been confirmed that the official Ubuntu Forums have been hacked. At the moment there are not many details but what is confirmed is that the hackers have been successful in their attempts to gain access and they have managed to get every users username, password and email address.
For the time being the Ubuntu Forums have been taken down and have been replaced with a simple splash page with the latest information on what is happening.
IF YOU USE YOUR UBUNTU FORUMS PASSWORD ANYWHERE ELSE, FOR EXAMPLE GMAIL, THEN WE STRONGLY URGE YOU TO GO AND CHANGE THOSE PASSWORDS STRAIGHT AWAY!!!
We will give you more information as we get it. If you know more then please feel free to add a comment below.
