There is information about the Yahoo data breach on the Internet, including the $117 million class action case on behalf of 194 million class members: https://www.cnbc.com/2020/02/06/what-to-do-if-you-got-email-from-yahoo-about-a-data-breach-settlement.html I don't know if there is enough information available in the public domain to determine to what extent free/oss software might have contributed to that data breach. I do remember Yahoo admitted the number of affected accounts was around 500 million. Best regards, Chuck
