FWIW, right now it seems unlikely that your password was accessible to anyone. Your login cookie may have been taken if you accessed Lemmy on a web browser (apps are likely fine), so you would want to clear your Lemmy cookies and cache once this is over.
But I’m speculating, and changing your password will definitely help!
This seems to be a front-end JavaScript exploit, so theres’s a good chance that this is a Lemmy problem, not a Lemmy[dot]world problem. Don’t be surprised if the issue starts spreading to other instances.
If I were running a server, I would take it offline until a patch is released (Beehaw did this, to be proactive).
This was a great overview. I hadn’t heard about the DAN method, and it’s fascinating!
I’m shocked this isn’t replacing the original Series S at $300.
Smart move. I’m surprised more instances aren’t doing this.
