Ethereum update: Etherscan is being hacked. Do not visit or use the “write” tab.
So etherscan looks like it has some XSS going on. Don’t visit it. If you do, a javascript popup will show with the message “1337”, usually the sign of someone testing some sort of Arbitrary JavaScript Execution attack.
Oh btw, if metamask is asking you to confirm any transactions while you’re on etherscan, reject them. One application of this attack is to phish for Ethers.
EDIT:
It appears to be patched.
