The RetoSwap team has not been compromised. This was a flaw in the Haveno protocol. Damage appears to be contained to large scale crypto offers with fiat traders unaffected. We are assessing options to help affected traders recover. The protocol is currently getting analyzed for related issues. Trading will resume after the protocol is deemed secure and a patch has been released.

The specific issue has already been identified. Per woodser "here's how the exploit worked: when the attacker took a trade, they sent a fake, out-of-order ACK message impersonating the arbitrator, causing the software to update the arbitrator's node address to their own, allowing them to create a compromised multisig wallet before funds were deposited".
