lemmy.world is a victim of an XSS attack right now and the hacker simply injected a JavaScript redirection into the sidebar.
It appears the Lemmy backend does not escape HTML in the main sidebar. Not sure if this is also true for community sidebars.
I applied the mitigations and unvalidated all login tokens.
As far as I can tell slrpnk.net was not directly effected though.
