BerliOS compromised

[Security] Posted Jan 13, 2010 16:12 UTC (Wed) by corbet

The BerliOS repository site has been compromised; indeed, it appears it has been compromised since 2005. What little information is available can be found from this (German) Heise article (Google translation) and a screen shot from the defaced site. According to the BerliOS system admin (a certain Jörg Schilling), no data has been tampered with, but those who have worked with or gotten code from BerliOS might want to be careful regardless.

Update: the Heise article is now available in English.
