| schestowitz | A security vulnerability was recently discovered that made it possible for an attacker to add new SSH keys to arbitrary GitHub user accounts. This would have provided an attacker with clone/pull access to repositories with read permissions, and clone/pull/push access to repositories with write permissions. As of 5:53 PM UTC on Sunday, March 4th the vulnerability no longer exists. | Mar 07 18:36 |
| schestowitz | While no known malicious activity has been reported, we are taking additional precautions by forcing an audit of all existing SSH keys. | Mar 07 18:36 |
| schestowitz | # Required Action | Mar 07 18:36 |
