Hackers gained access to the GitHub repositories and tampered the source code of Gentoo by introducing a malicious script to delete all of your files.
“Today 28 June at approximately 20:20 UTC unknown individuals have gained control of the Github Gentoo organization and modified the content of repositories as well as pages there. We are still working to determine the exact extent and to regain control of the organization and its repositories. All Gentoo code hosted on GitHub should for the moment be considered compromised. “
So, if you’ve downloaded something from Gentoo’s GitHub yesterday, you need to discard it immediately and utilize their official website instead of the code hosted on GitHub till further confirmation.
In the recent alert, they confirmed that Gentoo has regained control of its GitHub Organization and they are closely working with GitHub on a procedure for resolution.
