"Out of an abundance of caution," wrote Twitter CTO Parag Agrawal, "we ask that you consider changing your password on all services where you’ve used this password."
In other words, if you've recycled your Twitter password for other sites (which you shouldn't be doing), you should change the password for those accounts too.

In the announcement, Agrawal provided additional detail as to how all this went down.
"Due to a bug, passwords were written to an internal log before completing the hashing process," he explained. "We found this error ourselves, removed the passwords, and are implementing plans to prevent this bug from happening again."
