Actually, I'm going to guess that this is the changeset you're looking for:
http://code.sixapart.com/trac/movabletype/changeset/3747/branches/fringale/lib/MT/App/Wizard.pm

Apparently, you could run the wizard even if the config existed which I
SURMISE allowed you to run the config steps thereby possibly disclosing
information about your server.

By the way, I have to heartily agree with Dominic, security bug (especially)
should be public after release so that administrators and mantainers have
educated knowledge of the ways in which their non-updated systems are
vulnerable.   Mozilla, Apache and other open source projects handle this
very well and should be looked upon for a decent model.
