Urgent Security Notice

cockatielcutie:

cockatielcutie:

Not a joke, if you have a FurAffinity account, and use your password literally anywhere else, you need to change it right now.

The password hashes, the literal things that decrypt passwords, have been exposed. Your accounts that use that same password are all at risk.

CHANGE YOUR PASSWORDS ON EVERYTHING. RIGHT NOW.

Update: People are beginning to report that there are already attempts to access accounts which were tied to FA. Change your passwords literally right this second.

FurAffinity has, additionally, broken the law by not notifying their users of a breach by email. There are rumblings of a potential suit, which could kill FA. If you are an artist, consider migrating to Weasyl, FurryNetwork, or SoFurry.
