? Security Alert ?

February 24, 2017 12:02 am

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.

I changed my password i hope no accounts on this website were affected

February 24, 2017, 3:23 pm by

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

February 24, 2017, 3:07 pm by

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

February 24, 2017, 2:58 pm by

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

Thank you, subeta!

February 24, 2017, 2:08 pm by

Thank you subeta for always taking security breaches seriously and being so transparent and informative about them. ❤️

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! :)

Thank you for not keeping our passwords in plaintext. XD If only other sites were as professional.

February 24, 2017, 11:24 am by

February 24, 2017, 9:21 am by

I use about two of these other than subeta, and I cant even remember the passwords for them, so I needed to change them anyway. Thanks for the alert!

February 24, 2017, 7:57 am by

According to the news post, yes

February 24, 2017, 7:32 am by

February 24, 2017, 5:54 am by

Thank you for the alert! :)

:O I'm surprised by a number of sites on the list.

February 24, 2017, 4:22 am by

Thank you for the alert!

February 24, 2017, 4:18 am by

Thanks for the alert! Good to know.

February 24, 2017, 2:13 am by

Thanks for the alert, I need to change just a few.

February 24, 2017, 1:36 am by

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....

February 24, 2017, 1:20 am by

Thank you for the heads-up!

February 24, 2017, 12:59 am by

Oh jesus. That's literally a list of every site I've ever used. OUCH I have a lot of work to do now....

February 24, 2017, 12:58 am by

Yipes, thanks for the heads up. I hadn't even heard mention of this outside from you guys, and I'm glad you informed us. D:

February 24, 2017, 12:54 am by

Thanks staff, I've begun the arduous task of changing a bunch of stuff. I also now have a headache. sigh

February 24, 2017, 12:39 am by

I never heard of any of those sites.

February 24, 2017, 12:32 am by

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

February 24, 2017, 12:26 am by

Ah Cloudflare, the Microsoft of the internet. Thanks for the heads up!

February 24, 2017, 12:24 am by

Thank you for putting the players first. I really appreciate it.

February 24, 2017, 12:23 am by

thanks ;-;

February 24, 2017, 12:21 am by

Thank you for mentioning this!

I have no idea what I have that could be affected but I'll change everything I can think of anyway

February 24, 2017, 12:20 am by

Thanks Obama.

February 24, 2017, 12:18 am by

thanks for letting us know!

February 24, 2017, 12:18 am by

Thanks for the alert.

February 24, 2017, 12:17 am by

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.

February 24, 2017, 12:16 am by

Oh, jeez. That sucks. Thanks for the update!

February 24, 2017, 12:14 am by

I just heard about this and was about to change my password. Thanks, as always, for being on top of the important things and looking out for Subeta's users.
