ancient bug vandalism

Asked by Seth Arnold

Hello, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/127626 has been vandalized and set to private security. It looks like it's been modified by:

https://launchpad.net/~trfyhrtfd
and
https://launchpad.net/~gfhsf

both different accounts than the original reporter:

https://launchpad.net/~den16-tw

There's nothing remotely security sensitive here, nor private, nor even useful. I'm not sure what to ask, but it feels strange, so I'm asking for advice here.

Thanks

Hi,

I am unable to view the bug for some reason (maybe my account doesn't have the required permissions? or has the bug been deleted?), so I am going to ask my colleagues for help with this.

Updated the status back to 'Open' after a spam account moved it to 'Answered'.

I can confirm I see that bug in one of our lower environments and it was closed on 2008-06-06, in the production tier it looks like it was deleted.

Ah, I had hoped the launchpad team would have magic powers to see through private security bugs; I left it alone hoping you'd have an easy way to roll back vandalism.

So, I just opened it again; I hope that doesn't complicate repairing it much.

Thanks

Seth thanks for re-opening, that gave me visibility, vandalism now removed and accounts suspended for spam.
