A customer of mine lost 7BTC in this transaction, which he didn't make himself: https://blockchain.info/da/tx/19ab8bcf7f9e34e6afe7b6e1d599ecf5496fa0f4774c3bb63fbdf3184b5c2ebe

I heard that Blockchain.info has recently had some security problems. Can anyone tell from the above if this heist is likely to have been caused by a Blockchain.info security issue?

There are several different types of Bitcoin clients. The most secure are full nodes like Bitcoin Core, but full nodes are more resource-heavy, and they must do a lengthy initial syncing process. As a result, lightweight clients with somewhat less security are commonly used.

Doesn't look like the RNG bug, no. Probably a keylogger.
