You have to wonder why this is making the rounds today. Is it to remind the general public that America currently has a beef with Russia and the two might engage in more overt forms of cyber warfare? Is it an abstract response to the missile strikes on the USS Mason in Yemen, the implication being Russia was involved? Perhaps they want to turn cyber security into a bigger issue, and it'll take a few tit-for-tat attacks to get the public sufficiently outraged enough to demand better security. The report seemed to come out of nowhere and for no particularly good reason.
