		mcculley on June 6, 2012 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: 6.5 Million LinkedIn Password Hashes Leaked I can confirm that my password was in there. I have changed it. My password was "98mnja6z" which hashes to 6475590bc1407aa98c8b022230292cce3d8528b3. I used this for no other sites, so I'm not concerned about it leaking. It is inexcusable that LinkedIn hasn't alerted their users yet.

Mine is also in there. It was also a randomly generated password used only on LinkedIn.
