If you have ever run FxA servers, please read on.

Several FxA servers depended on a version of flatmap-stream that was taken
over by an attacker <https://github.com/dominictarr/event-stream/issues/116>
and corrupted to steal bitcoin wallets. These repos include:


   -

   fxa-local-dev <https://github.com/mozilla/fxa-local-dev> [1]
   -

   fxa-oauth-server <https://github.com/mozilla/fxa-oauth-server/> [2]
   (pre-Oct 24th)
   -

   fxa-auth-server <https://github.com/mozilla/fxa-auth-server/> [3]
   (post-Oct 24th)
   -

   fxa-basket-proxy <https://github.com/mozilla/fxa-basket-proxy/> [4]


If you run any of these servers, please stop them now and update to the
latest versions.

Each repo can be updated by entering their directory and typing:

> git checkout -- .

> git pull

> npm install

For fxa-local-dev, type:

> git checkout -- .

> git pull

> npm install

> ./scripts/update_all.sh

Our current information is that the malicious package was designed to steal
bitcoin wallets. If you are running a bitcoin wallet app on the same
machine as FxA, check your wallet.

Again, this is only necessary if you run any of [1][2][3][4] locally. The
Mozilla-hosted Firefox Accounts servers are not affected, and if the
Mozilla-hosted servers are the only ones you use, you are not at risk.

If you have questions, please email [email protected], or visit the
#security channel in IRC or Slack.

Thanks,

Shane
