There is a rumor of a w00bind exploit for bind 8.x and 9.x that was
posted earlier today. This is false. This "w00bind" code recently made it
back to me, and it has my name in it. So assuming I really co-authored
w00bind, it would have to be pretty old (1997 or 1998), because I have no
recollection of working on it. As a final point, w00w00 is not an
underground group and any new vulnerabilities we discover we publicly
disclose.
