"Based on our efforts, we have high confidence that the intruder was not able to capture the passphrase used to secure the Fedora package signing key," Paul Frields, Fedora Project Leader for Red Hat, said in an announcement released on Friday. "Based on our review to date, the passphrase was not used during the time of the intrusion on the system and the passphrase is not stored on any of the Fedora servers."
