Subject: [Wikimedia Announcements] ***Security notice*** for IRC: vulnerability
prior to September 15, change passwords
All,
As you may have heard, Freenode found some compromised servers on their
networks. Network traffic, including SSL traffic, may have been sniffed by a
third party.
This likely affects many Wikimedia IRC users, including users who do not speak
English, so please forward this notice and translate as needed for the benefit
of other Wikimedians.
If you have not changed your nickserv password on September 15 or later, please
do so now.
From the Freenode blog:
"Before changing your password, please check your email address in
/msg nickserv info and, if needed, update it – see /msg nickserv help
set email (remember to check your new email for the verification key).
This will ensure that we can send you a password reset email should, for
whatever reason, your password change not work properly. If you have no
email set on your account or an email set that you cannot access, we
cannot send password resets to you, so do please keep this up-to-date.
"To change your password use /msg nickserv set password newpasshere
"Since traffic may have been sniffed, you may also wish to consider
any channel keys or similar secret information exchanged over the
network."
Please direct questions to Freenode IRC ops. They are voiced in the #freenode
channel.
