Here are the highlights: * An intrusion into some servers was detected. * The packages and signing keys were not affected. * They intend to change package signing keys as an extra precaution. * The forced reinstall was used as an opportunity for upgrade of many services on all servers. * There are no details about the break in cause. * Some servers at Red Hat were broken at the same time (Red Hat issued a separate announcement).
More details in: http://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-announce-list/2008-August/msg00012.html I hope they publish the exact break in route so we can evaluate the security implications. -- Oron Peled Voice/Fax: +972-4-8228492 [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.actcom.co.il/~oron Real programmers confuse halloween and christmas because OCT 31 = DEC 25. ================================================================= To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
