- v64 11y agoThanks for that, at least it's something. John Clay is listed here[1] as a contributor to "Website maintenance and troubleshooting, Mac OS X help documentation". I wish they would post a similar update on their website and explicitly confirm that the current source and binaries have been audited and are safe.

It wasn't included if the update was performed through the Transmission client. That would seem to suggest it was the web server that was compromised.
