Subject: iDEFENSE Security Advisory 08.16.04: CVS Undocumented Flag Information Disclosure Vulnerability
Stefan,
We were aware that the vulnerability had been patched due to the work of
Sebastian Krahmer and yourself as this was mentioned by CVS during the
vendor disclosure process. We chose to proceed with the disclosure as it
did not appear that the CVE number for this issue had been
reserved/publicized or that specific details of this vulnerability had
been posted. We do not however wish to take credit from you for your
efforts.
Regards,
Michael Sutton
