E.g., the BID 1780 exploit is in the original Bugtraq message from NSFOCUS

E.g., the BID 4485 exploit is in the original Bugtraq message from Eeye
http://online.securityfocus.com/archive/1/266937
Both of these are accessible by drilling down from the BID's "Credit" tab.
No conspiracy here ... just laziness by SF/Symantec. It's inconvenient, but there's always Packetstorm if you're in a hurry.

- Thanks for clarifying. Indeed you are correct. The "exploit" tab has been
- entirely removed. Interestingly, at least some of the exploit files are
- still there:
- http://216.239.33.100/search?q=cache:9Fbx2EFZanAC:online.securityfocus.com/bid/1780/exploit/
- http://216.239.33.100/search?q=cache:Qjh1bVr7VFYC:online.securityfocus.com/bid/4485/exploit/
- I wonder if the files bein! g left available is simply an oversight that
- hasn't been addressed yet. I wonder if they were left available
- intentionally because the commercial vulnerability database customers still
- get access to the exploits, and possibly their version of the vulnerability
- database entries still include the exploit section that links to those files.
- When I was working there, we would occasionally be accused of "selling
- exploits". Other people's exploits, to be more specific. I never felt
- that the accusation was accurate, because of the fact that the exploits
- were made available to the public, and SecurityFocus was simply acting as
- an archive. If they have removed them from public view, and are still
- keeping them around for the paying customers, then perhaps that accusation
- is now valid.
- Used to be that if an exploit writer didn't want their exploit saved for
- posterity on securityfocus.com, they could ask, and it would be removed. ! I
- guess now one will have no way of knowing if it's there or not.
