Was this site or any other KSP site affected by the recent Cloudfare bug?

See above. Should I change my password for this?

Squad uses Multiplay, so no the Cloudfare stuff doesn't affect us.

Yup.  I was confused because, 1. this is a late-breaking story and I hadn't heard the news yet and had no idea what you were talking about and you didn't include a link , and 2. having searched for it just now, I assume that you mean "CloudFlare" rather than "CloudFare"?

Anyway, for the curious, here, I'll save you a couple of mouse clicks. 

• Google news search
• Initial tweet from Google security researcher who found the problem
• A news story about it (this was the first hit to come up under the above news search)

Doh! In my defense, it was 2:36 AM for me when I posted it.

I'm glad to hear that these sites are not affected.

It had the potential to disclose private user information, such as passwords.
