I went to their website and read the info on this bug. And now I sit here and think what does it mean? What actually happens if somebody does this? has anybody used this as an attack?
If these guys want respect or even Mac people to care what they are doing maybe they should write in English instead of Geekish! I have been using a Mac for over 20 years and Quicktime since it came out and I have no idea what a rtsp:// URL handle is or what stack NX is and basically most of what else was written on the site also escapes me. Maybe I am just to dumb to understand their superior intellect but hey if they want me to care about this they should make it so the average Mac user can understand.
From my perspective I see these guys as somebody wanting to see their names/work in the blogs and news. They post a exploit that is trivial and write about it in geek terms and most people will just look at it an figure it must be a terrible thing.
I wonder if these guys have real jobs? or friends? are they the ones who send me all that spam about the next great company in the stock market?
