 Heap Buffer Overflow in xMatters APClient

Any reason for the hostility? The nigerian thing was ages ago and out
of curiosity, and I don't see how my choice of school is relevant in
the situation. Wheres this six month deal coming from and when did I
ever say I even counted myself as a hacker?

All I'm saying is InsectPro did poor documentation and poor
investigation into the "vulnerability".
