Instead of selecting your TikTok name with VK under the account, tap on the trash can icon, and then simply add another user. You can then sign in as usual with your login details without worrying if your account has been compromised.

TikTok has yet to come up with a notice or an update regarding this issue. Therefore, it's best not to mess around with your login details. As for now, users can follow the steps above to ensure that your account is safe.
