It brings me to this website and one comment says:
I’m not an engineer or techie. Could someone advise what is my corrective action here? I’m supposed to update my p/w at gravatar.com ?

Can be used for targeted phishing to try and steal passwords.
OK, this means I should take care of phishing emails instead of directly worrying about password leakage. 🤷
