The fuck? Did Aurora get RAT'd or something? I honestly doubt Github itself was compromised, and I honestly hope that Aurora wouldn't pose herself as such a low hanging fruit. Did some asshole gain physical access to her PC? This has all of my what.

Edit: Oh, the Temp was attacked. Time to change your passwords.

Oh my... literally brewed my N3DS earlier today for the first time. Was successful. I think I used the compromised repositories. What risk am I at?

As of what happened right now with Luma github being attacked by a hacker, I refuse to update the CFW on both my 2DS and N3DSXL. Gonna stay with the current version until this issue has been resolved.

You got the homebrew channel? Is that the only thing you've done? If so, you should be in the clear

If you have not done anything in terms of downgrading or decrypt 9, you should be good.

I followed https://3ds.guide/, including a Luma installation (which I also updated from the Luma update app). Was completely unaware of any compromised accounts.

Everything is fully functional, so can I rest my worries? Or is there a possibility of spyware / sleeper brick?

Wonderful. Welp, guess it's time to start using SHA512sums as passwords everywhere.

Incidentally, this CFW doesn't seem to be malware from the code, it's more just...another CFW? Either way, I have no clue what the heck is happening. Need to emerge hexchat and hop on #cakey.

I think you're fine. If they did implement a brick, it probably would have already happened. I think I heard that Plailect changed the links to mirrors. I'm pretty certain you're fine

Nah, all that happened was some people had their passwords brute forced, and Aurora likely used the same password for gbatemp and github. Wouldn't be a terrible idea to change it anyway.

Her account was hacked and the hacker also deleted her repo.

I would suggest people start using a password manager of some kind and a password generator.

It may make life a bit harder but it also reduces the chances of a hack like this becoming a larger problem.

    i thought everybody knew cocktails are like 75% ice
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Yeah but not like this.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not like they're complaining that their Slurpee is 99% ice or something, but if the cocktail calls for "shot of vodka, shot of vermouth, shot of gin, shot of Campari, three shots of juice, squirt of lemon" and ends up being a thimbleful of booze, that's a problem.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    the funny thing is cocktails in norway are only allowed to have 1 20ml shot of booze
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    so..... yeah
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    we're used to only having a thimbleful of booze
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Booo.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    same thing if you want whisky on the rocks or something, you can't get a double
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but you could buy as many shots of whisky (or anything else) as you want and ask for a glass of ice and pour them in
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    it's dumb
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Maybe.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    There was a comparison of the number of Ibuprofen poisonings before and after they limited the maximum dosage per box or per pill (i'll look that up). No limit on the number of boxes you can still buy as many as you want, so people argued it was pointless.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    But the number of (accidental) poisonings dropped because drinking an entire package of ibuprofen pills went from "I need a new liver" to "I need a new box of Ibuprofen".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Here we have ketoprofen that used to be prescription-only because of the risk of toxic dosages, but then they halved the dose per pill and sell them in bottles of six pills apiece instead of twenty and it doesn't need a prescription any more. Yes you can buy more than one bottle but people simply don't.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Usually accidentally overdose of ibuprofen here is from people taking like cold medicine then ibuprofen for a headache and the combination is over what they need
