I'm not too worried by the possibility of karma glitches or sinister collusions between heavy karma-passers and sock puppets, but if we're dealing with a hacker then I have some serious concerns about site security.
If someone has enough database access to fiddle with karma, they may also have access to passwords, past posts, and admin functions. I hope the site admins will let us know as soon as they've figured out what's going on.
