The New York Times confirmed its GitHub repository was breached in January following the leak of its internal source code and data as part of a 273 GB archive on the 4chan message board, reports BleepingComputer. Such an archive purportedly contains the New York Times’ entire source code, including nearly 5,000 repositories, fewer than 30 of which are encrypted, and 3.6 million files, according to the 4chan forum post by an anonymous user.
