Password reuse attack on GitHub

On June 23, June 14, someone tried to log on to GitHub using the recently exposed email and password combinations of stolen accounts to obtain the user accounts using the same email. The GitHub administrator discovered this password reuse attack, reset the passwords of all accounts successfully accessed by the attacker, and sent emails to the affected users to find out how to retrieve the account. GitHub encourages users to enable two-step authentication and adopt good password practices. Do not repeat the password. In the past few weeks, hackers have disclosed more than 0.6 billion accounts stolen from social media sites such as MySpace, Tumblr, and LinkedIn.
