Yesterday's news. X-posting from Tumblr, not to cause panic, but because for once there is a way of checking if your account happens to be on the list of stolen email address/password combinations...
On July 12, 2012, D33DS Co. released over 450,000 Yahoo! Voices accounts containing emails and passwords in cleartext. Yahoo! Voices service, previously known as Associated Content, is provided by Yahoo! Inc. to allow writers to submit articles that are then distributed to several Yahoo! owned websites including Yahoo! News. The leak was made possible as Yahoo! Voices service was susceptible to SQL injection attack. D33DS Co. is hoping the leak will serve as a wake-up call for Yahoo! Inc. to re-evaluate their security policy.
A fully searchable version of the list — sans passwords — is up on Dazzlepod
There is also a request link on Dazzlepod's site to have your address removed from the viewable list.
