Hacked file? Unsecure site?
I was trying to look at this post from keeper_of_pots

/post/show/65791/absurdres-barefoot-black_hair-blonde_hair-blue_eye

But after a few seconds, the image changes to a GIF of Rick Astley, and a message pops up saying "Inform the site owner that they should use a more secure booru" along with a pastebin link:

pastebin.com/66KaEV1x

The link details potential security risks with hypnohub. I do not know when the file was created, but it looks like it was today (Mar 7 2022).

I'm sorry if creating a new forum was not the way to do this, but I am unsure who the site owner is or who specifically to contact.

Update: I've contacted the site admin about this.

It happens from time to time that so-called White-Hat hackers will try to show off security issues with the site, despite the admins being well aware of them. The problem is the site uses ancient unmaintained software, and from what I understood migration attempts have been made but never really successful.

I see, thanks for the response, I was worried. It looks like the "White-Hat hacker" made a separate forum post about the topic and the changes have been undone.
