[email protected] appears to be tracking the issue through https://lemmy.ml/post/1896249
and updating the community at large through a PSA here https://lemmy.ml/post/1895271
if those threads get too much activity they may switch to new threads or start using another medium so do not count on them remaining up to date until things are fully resolved.
lemmy.blahaj.zone appears to have been affected as well.
Right now working theory is some combination of admin account compromise and code injection through the markdown processor used prior to 18.1 but that could change over time. Looks like we're on latest so hoping we're good.
Would continue to avoid lemmy.world and lemmy.blahaj.zone until there is a better understanding of what happened and there is a good consensus all is resolved.
Gotta sleep soon so wishing us all luck
There is a more technical discussion about a related issue that mentions the servers we know about https://lemmy.sdf.org/post/696053
