Subject: Re: phpbb 2.0.15 released - patches high critical vuln
As expected, today was supposed to be full-disclosure on this
vulnerability. On further evaluation, another vendor must be contacted as
the vulnerability permits a users computer to be hijacked. Surely there
is enough of that going on with current spyware/adware. That vendor has
been sent an email today, and we'll respond back to the lists with a
followup shortly.
Eventually we'll get to releasing the full disclosure, however, at this
stage, it is a much bigger issue than just phpbb and we want to play it
safe for the greater community-at-large.
