Following on the heels of a breach of kernel.org, the internet holding place for the Linux kernel, Linux.com and its related sites have been breached. Details of the attack are unknown at this time, but as of this writing I get a message from Linux.com telling me it's down for maintenance. Here is an e-mail I just received from the head-sheds at Linux.com, and below that is a screenshot of Linux.com as of right now.
Attention Linux.com and LinuxFoundation.org users,
We are writing you because you have an account on Linux.com,
LinuxFoundation.org, or one of the subdomains associated with these domains.
On September 8, 2011, we discovered a security breach that may have
compromised your username, password, email address and other information you
have given to us. We believe this breach was connected to the intrusion on
kernel.org.
As with any intrusion and as a matter of caution, you should consider the
passwords and SSH keys that you have used on these sites compromised. If you
have reused these passwords on other sites, please change them immediately.
We are currently auditing all systems and will update public statements when
we have more information.
We have taken all Linux Foundation servers offline to do complete
re-installs. Linux Foundation services will be put back up as they become
available. We are working around the clock to expedite this process and are
working with authorities in the United States and in Europe to assist with
the investigation.
The Linux Foundation takes the security of its infrastructure and that of
its members extremely seriously and are pursuing all avenues to investigate
this attack and prevent future ones. We apologize for this inconvenience and
will communicate updates as we have them.
Please contact us at info@linuxfoundation.org with questions about this
matter.
The Linux Foundation

worldwidexs.com.auPeople who are bored with life do such stuff. What did Linux do wrong to get attacked?
It's just that some people hate it when others are doing well
