Lemmy.world and another instance have been compromised

FYI!!! In case you start getting re-directed to porn sites.

Maybe the admin got hacked?


edit: lemmy.blahaj.zone has also been hacked. beehaw.org is also down, possibly intentionally by their admins until the issue is fixed.

  • Did this result in Lemmy.world being defederated from Lemdro.id?

    Lemmy.world is back up and the hack is over, but when I view [email protected] using my lemmy.world account I can't see anything.

    EDIT: In case anyone else is having this problem, the issue was my language settings. Despite having “Undetermined” set as a language, that was the problem - I clicked the little “X” to unselect all languages and then saved, and now it’s working again.

    • I have not de-federated other instances simply because lemdro.id is not vulnerable to this particular exploit
