WDFW and KING 5 are reporting that the third party software WDFW and most other state wildlife agencies use for license sales has a security vulnerability that has been exploited, leaking an as yet unknown amount of personal data from various databases, including Washington's. Consider the information you provide when you purchase a license, then decide for yourself whether you should be alarmed.

Anyway, license sales have been suspended until such time as the threat has been assessed and neutralized.

Not trying to place blame on WDFW. Just spreading the delightful news.
