It looks like they may have used RSA encryption with a 4096 bit key [1] and as far as I know, if the private key is not compromised; this is pretty darn secure...Can anyone confirm?

HNer kouiskas suggests it is a weak, unsalted hash. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=5677550

That seems to be for the password, right? Credit cards should be encrypted with a much stronger algorithm (hence the reference to the private keys).

Oh, I guess so. I'd be much more concerned about my password than my credit card.

Thanks for the heads up, I did not notice that.
