As stated, technically correct. But availability of a relatively non-critical service being compromised is an entirely different story than integrity of their software being compromised. One is a no-op, the other is a potential all-hands-on-deck situation for anyone using the software.

The headline allows for both possibilities. See the example I posted in a sibling post: A headline of "terrorists strike railway station" would make most people imagine a bloodbath with dozens dead, while still being accurate if all that happened was that some ecoanarchists set a trash can on fire and forced an evacuation.
