A bug in the bitcoin software makes it possible for someone to use the Bitcoin network to alter transaction details to make it seem like a sending of bitcoins to a bitcoin wallet did not occur when in fact it did occur.
If that is true, it probably affects all alt-coins since they all fork back to btc.
However I bet it's just a matter of getting more confirms since attackers could be using fraudulent nodes to try to fool the network.
