<p>Usernames and encrypted passwords from around 38 million active Adobe users were stolen as part of a cyberattack first detailed earlier this month, reports Krebs on Security. Though Adobe originally reported that information on 2.9 million customers had been compromised, it now tells Krebs that the number is far higher and that it has been resetting the passwords and notifying the owners for all of them. The initial 2.9 million accounts also had credit card information associated with them, but Adobe says that the other accounts were part of a separate database that did not include payment information.</p><p>Source code for Photoshop, Acrobat, and more was taken too</p><p>In addition to the account details, portions of the source code for Photoshop, Acrobat, Reader, and ColdFusion were also taken, reports Krebs. Some of the source code and account information has reportedly been posted online since the data breach. The source code for Photoshop appears to be unencrypted, while the account passwords are protected by encryption. Krebs attempted to crack the encryption, but says that it was unable to.</p><p>Adobe is offering a year of credit monitoring to all customers whose credit cards were accessed in the breach (though ironically enough, it's offering that service through Experian, which Krebs reported last week had fallen victim to a data breach as well). With Adobe recently beginning a transition to subscription software, more and more of its customers will have their credit cards tied to their accounts though it's likely that users invested in earlier software haven't made that transition yet. Even so, with Adobe only reporting the number of active accounts that were compromised, it appears the breach could be even bigger still.</p><p><a href="http://www.theverge.com/2013/10/29/5042434/adobe-cyberattack-takes-38-million-passwords-photoshop-source-code">Keep reading...</a></p><p>Read also:</p><p><a href="http://blogs.wsj.com/digits/2013/10/29/hackers-accessed-photoshop-source-code/">Hackers Accessed Photoshop Source Code</a> (Wall Street Journal (blog))</p><p><a href="http://www.theage.com.au/it-pro/security-it/adobe-hack-38m-users-impacted-photoshop-source-code-also-stolen-20131029-hv2ab.html">Adobe hack: 38m users impacted, Photoshop source code also stolen</a> (The Age)</p><p><a href="http://www.sdtimes.com/link/65281">SD Times Blog: Adobe breach compromised more than 38 million users ...</a> (SDTimes.com)</p><p>Explore: <a href="http://news.google.com/news/more?ncl=ddH8pIWALJrwbaMYakpAbuK0xoguM&ned=us">99 additional articles.</a></p>
