Lemmy.world and another instance have been compromised

FYI!!! In case you start getting re-directed to porn sites.
Maybe the admin got hacked?
edit: lemmy.blahaj.zone has also been hacked. beehaw.org is also down, possibly intentionally by their admins until the issue is fixed.

Did this result in Lemmy.world being defederated from Lemdro.id?
Lemmy.world is back up and the hack is over, but when I view !android@lemdro.id using my lemmy.world account I can't see anything.
EDIT: In case anyone else is having this problem, the issue was my language settings. Despite having “Undetermined” set as a language, that was the problem - I clicked the little “X” to unselect all languages and then saved, and now it’s working again.
I have not de-federated other instances simply because lemdro.id is not vulnerable to this particular exploit
