Linux Mint Hacked: ISO for 17.3 Cinnamon Edition Modified
by from on (#14PZ1)
Linux Mint project leader Clem Lefebvre revealed in a blog post today that the popular Linux distribution's servers were hacked on Saturday. During the "brief" intrusion, the hackers modified the ISO for the Cinnamon edition of Linux Mint 17.3 (Rosa) and also gained access to the distro's forum database. Only this particular ISO is affected; other editions or releases are considered safe. Only ISO's downloaded Saturday are potentially vulnerable.
