DNForum Sends Out Password Reset

Posted on July 27, 2019 by Dissent

Earlier this morning, I unexpectedly received a password reset request at DNForum. I was previously an active user on DNForum, but I have not used the forum in quite some time. As a result, I was taken aback that a password reset email was sent to me. It looks like I was not alone in receiving the reset notification, as others have mentioned receiving the same password reset email.

A note on the forum states, in part:

Dear DNForum.com user. We have been forced to alter your password in order to maintain your account security. This process can take up to 24 hours.

There have been attempts to access accounts that are from 2014 or older and therefore we have seen it necessary to do a hard reset of all user passwords.
