? Security Alert ?



Security Alert!





Over the last week there has been a leak of data from Cloudflare, which is a CDN (content delivery network) in front of major sites on the internet, including Subeta. More importantly, it includes much larger sites like some listed here.







It's unclear exactly how much data was leaked in this method, or where it is still visible, and we will be monitoring the situation as more information comes out.



What can you do?





We advise changing your passwords on affected sites, and enabling two factor authentication where possible.



What is Subeta doing?





We will be rotating our private HTTPS keys.



Subeta does not store your password in plain text, so no one has the ability to access that even if Subeta data was leaked - but we will be changing our secret hashes for passwords, so any that were leaked cannot be used.

Flightrising uses cloudflare too, just fyi. I know a lot of people play that too, so spread the word. I don't see any official announcement about this leak over there, which is troubling.

Thank you so much for this heads up!
I'm so glad that the staff are onboard with this and discussing issues compared to most websites.

@seephira
I would rather change it as a precaution. I also heard that you should be changing your passwords every week.

so why change the passwords if there is no way that someone can get them?

Upwork and Elance are affected? Holy crap, that's concerning since people do business on there / exchange money. Thank you for the heads up!

If it wasn't for your warning, I never would have understood why I got locked out of my fb account earlier. Many of my friends and I have been visiting and using some of the sites listed. Me and a few of them were forced to change our fb pws, which I'm totally ok with, but I didn't understand WHY until now. Thank you guys so much for keeping us aware! :)

Shit. I use some of these websites but I don't have accounts on most of them. Hopefully I have nothing to worry about, but I should probably change a few just in case....

I for one am impressed that subeta uses proper hashing for passwords rather then using reversable encryption.

and that they are strait up with users and don't sit on this stuff.

thenx 4 the heads up

Be aware that Discord is affected, and if you've connected Discord to other sites or applications those may be compromised as well. I've had a couple friends whose skype has been messed with because it was linked to their Discord. Granted, it was believed a Discord plugin was to blame, and I don't know the intricacies of this, but might be a good idea to unlink any other accounts and change passwords for all of them.

Thats... huge. Much bigger than Subeta. Many of the biggest sites are using Cloudflare. Period. At least according to that Github link, it looks like over 1000 of the top 10000 websites (by Alexa rating) on the entire internet. Good luck guys, and try to stay safe.
