I am extremely responsible with regards to security and in most

cases I've had a fix ready and available within 30 minutes of

receiving note of a vulnerability.

I take a dim view of posting exact details of vulnerabilities before

people have a chance to patch their board and I take a dim view of

needlessly alarming people with almost trivial matters, such as

this.

If you find a vulnerability in a program and you post details of

how to exploit it without notifying the vendor then that is very

irresponsible indeed.
