Good afternoon,

I wonder why control sum for [https://download.rockylinux.org/pub/rocky/9/isos/x86\_64/Rocky-9.4-x86\_64-dvd.iso](https://download.rockylinux.org/pub/rocky/9/isos/x86_64/Rocky-9.4-x86_64-dvd.iso) differs from what can be found in [https://download.rockylinux.org/pub/rocky/9/isos/x86\_64/CHECKSUM](https://download.rockylinux.org/pub/rocky/9/isos/x86_64/CHECKSUM) ?

sha256sum Rocky-9.4-x86\_64-dvd.iso  
b856de6e120075d2ccb65cd8697929d04475fc15a7d6a46aa191480069f345ff Rocky-9.4-x86\_64-dvd.iso

but CHECKSUM file contains:

# Rocky-9.4-x86\_64-dvd.iso: 10916397056 bytes

SHA256 (Rocky-9.4-x86\_64-dvd.iso) = e20445907daefbfcdb05ba034e9fc4cf91e0e8dc164ebd7266ffb8fdd8ea99e7

What’s going on?

Regards,  
J

Firstly, let’s not jump to conclusions about being “hacked”.

Secondly, I am not seeing any issues. I suspect that your download is failing. I’ve just downloaded the artifact from dl.r.o and verified its checksum, as well as verified my copy of the rocky mirror:

```auto
nhanlon@ds918:/volume1/repos/mirror/rocky$ sha256sum 9/isos/x86_64/Rocky-9.4-x86_64-dvd.iso
e20445907daefbfcdb05ba034e9fc4cf91e0e8dc164ebd7266ffb8fdd8ea99e7 9/isos/x86_64/Rocky-9.4-x86_64-dvd.iso
nhanlon@ds918:/volume1/repos/mirror/rocky$ grep dvd 9/isos/x86_64/CHECKSUM
# Rocky-9.4-x86_64-dvd.iso: 10916397056 bytes
SHA256 (Rocky-9.4-x86_64-dvd.iso) = e20445907daefbfcdb05ba034e9fc4cf91e0e8dc164ebd7266ffb8fdd8ea99e7

```

Then seems something is fishy at my side.  
Thanks for verification.

Have a nice afternoon,
