    Hey guys!

    Mojang has taken down all services due to an exploit in OpenSSL one of the systems they use, This could potentially allow people to take the passwords of users Mojang had this to say

    Due to an exploit in the OpenSSL software used by Amazon's load balancing service (which we use for most of our stuff) we were forced to temporary suspend all of our services. All systems are now back online, and the exploit has been fixed. There was no way to target specific users, but we can not guarantee that your information wasn't compromised. Therefore we recommend everyone to change their Mojang/Minecraft account passwords.


    more information about the exploit itself can be found Here

    I would change your password just in case
