Leaked Source report that passwords on the vBulletin forum “were stored using MD5 hashing and a salt”.
The site claims they were able to convert over 80% of the passwords to their plaintext values, thanks to its outdated data protection.
You can use the site to check if your details have been compromised, and there’s also a breakdown of the most common domains affected.
Google users seem to be worst off, with over a million hacked, though many of these are apparently disposable email addresses.
There’s been no official announcement from Valve as yet.
Thanks, ZDnet.
