GNU Servers Hacked, Linux Software May Be Compromised | |

In mid-March, someone hacked the primary file servers hosted by the GNU Project, the group which supports the development of many of the components in the Linux operating system, the group acknowledged Wednesday. It warned that the attacker may have inserted malicious code into the free software available for download, including Linux, and posted a set of hashes that users can check against to determine if what they retrieved is clean. The attack took place in March, but was only discovered in late July. It used an exploit that was revealed on March 17, for which a patch wasn't immediately available. It was during a week's span of vulnerability that the servers were compromised, the FSF said in a statement. A trojan horse was placed on the system at that time, possibly for password collection and to use the machine for additional attacks, according to the FSF. | ||
