Bug Possibly exploitable bug with post hashtag handling.

[avalanch07]

I have found a possibly exploitable error.
When browsing to the last post (from the forum index or any other way) you can append anything to the end and it will think it is valid.

Instead of thinking this url below is wrong, it treats it as if it's valid and does not send an error message.

Notice how it thinks this url is valid.

The hash tag is what's known as a "Page Anchor". Please see this page for an example: Knowledge Base: Add Anchor Tags To Jump To Specific Location On A Page

Under no circumstances does a browser execute this anchor as code.
