FYI: Lemmy.world and other instances were hacked. Beehaw.org took itself down to mitigate risks

Drawing attention on this instance so Admins are aware and can address the propagating exploit.

And this is why you don't trust tankies. It's very easy to compromise the software and put back doors into it.

Use kbin instead

This is hardly a back door. The lemmy devs just screwed up.

Use kbin instead.

Kbin had a fix for an SQL injection exploit the other week. Both probably still have security holes that haven't yet been identified.

There are more eyes on the software as the userbase grows, and people are going to find more flaws. That's just the way things go.

This is hardly a back door.

I literally said it wasn't in my comment, it's evidence of how easy it is to put one in down the line despite the fact this is open source software.

You must not understand how open source works

Well he absolutely must learn how open source works.

But he doesn’t understand how it works.

(Sorry for the correction…)
