Subject: Silence Is Defeat security notification

You are receiving this email because you have or had an account on Silence Is Defeat Public Access Unix Systems.

Our sshd daemon was recently compromised, resulting in a user obtaining cleartext password dumps for attempted logins.  If you have logged in since 1 November 2009, please reset your password as soon as possible.

There have been no known actions taken with the compromised passwords as of 26 April 2010.  The sshd daemon on silenceisdefeat has been recompiled from clean source code and the offending user has been removed.
