Oh man, are you still here insisting with this bullshit? How old are you,
fourteen?
Let’s get this straight: the researcher you tried to humiliate did a great job
finding a vulnerability and privately reporting it to the CAS PMC, as pointed
out by Jérôme, then wrote a CVE - that has been validated by Jérôme and MITRE -
and then made it public by posting it on oss-security. Many people have seen
and/or validated this CVE, many of them information security professionals, and
nobody complained about it except you. Does that mean you're above all these
people? If that's the case, why you're keeping your silly sysadmin job? Go for
the gold man, you're probably a rare genius!
"Oh, but the CVE title scared me" - then you should learn to read the full
announcement and CVE before start throwing away your frustrations in a public
list. There was no "Critical" or "Update immediately" piece written anywhere.
"Oh, but the CVE title was misleading" - that's your opinion, and only an
opinion. I don't really care about it, because for me the information was good
enough to understand the vulnerability and the risks associated. And apparently
you don't even understand how LDAP searches work with wildcards, so why bother?
So dude, do this list a favor: go find yourself a real work to do and stop this
stupid flame. Most people don't really care about you opinion on the CVE title,
so just give up.
Ah, and one more thing: trying to justify your recent douche behavior on "a bit
of a bad mood" is coward. Go find yourself a therapist.
Cheers,
Ticini, Yuri
P.S. - Since I'm sure you're going to respond to this - that's your kind, you
must have the last word - I'm following your advice and forwarding messages
from you to Junk. I'm not interested at all in what you have to say. Therefore,
feel free to try to pretend to be smart and superior responding to this, but
let's keep it as the last email on this thread, ok?

Bikeshedding? Really? A member of a mailing list for *security* software
thinks it's *bikeshedding* to insist on an accurate description,
assessment, and analysis of a *security* issue? Sheesh. I guess maybe I
should have taken this discussion over to oss-security or
fulldisclosure.

Annoyed? Absolutely. Whiny? Please. Grumpy maybe, but whiny no. And it's
not "didn't like" as in "I don't like the color red", it's "inaccurate"
as in "completely misleading and misusing technical terminology with a
standard definition in the security community".

Never heard of a killfile? Nobody put a gun to your head and forced you
to read it, if you don't actually care about the underlying details of
the bugs fixed in a new version you already updated to, feel free to
skim on past. I guess you don't have a very rigorous testing process if
you've already dropped this into production in a couple days. I haven't
updated my CAS deployments because, well, this crappy conversation
demonstrated quite clearly I didn't need to.
