Hackers Hit Adult Furry Website, Exposing Hundreds of Thousands of Users
The website for an adult furry game was hacked, with 411,000 unique email addresses and other personal information leaked, according to Have I Been Pwned’s Troy Hunt. The website hosted High Tail Hall, an interactive puzzle game “where you can have erotic encounters with the surrounding characters.”
The data breach reportedly happened in August of this year, and aside from emails, also included IP addresses, names, orders, and passwords cryptographically altered (salted SHA-1 and salted MD5 hashes) to make them harder for hackers to crack. According to the security and web team at HTH Studios, the company behind the website and game, no financial data was leaked in the breach.
HTH Studios noted on its website and in a Twitter screenshot that Hunt reached out to the team on Tuesday to inform them of the data breach that happened over the summer, and that the information from the breach showed up on “a popular hacking forum.”
