Sebastian is correct. It was an error to approve the message given he clearly stated in the comments he did not wish it distributed. For that I apologize. That being said, it been quite obvious that for a while now that this exploit is being shared in the underground and has been used actively to break into systems. Better control of exploits one does not wish to see distributed may be called for. > Oh, and another odd thing, there is no X-Approved-By: this time in the > post, I wonder why. Do you know ? The X-Approved-By header was inserted by LISTSERV. We been using ezmlm, which does not insert the header, for a while now. > ciao, > -scut -- Elias Levy SecurityFocus.com http://www.securityfocus.com/ Si vis pacem, para bellum
