henk de boer commented on RF-8610:
----------------------------------

Nick, is moving this to Future really a good move? It's only a matter of time 
before the 'bad guys' discover this vulnerability and start crashing public 
sites.

Or do you just assume (maybe backed by statistics) that no, or very few, 
*public* sites use RichFaces? I.e. that RichFaces is mainly used for intranet 
apps, and thus not as vulnerable? Remember that *one* single request may crash 
a VM and that a few concurrent requests always kill EVERY SUN VM. As we all 
know, the majority of people use the Sun VM, so there is NO escape for this 
high vulnerability.

Apple or Microsoft would be crucified if it reaches the public that there's a 
high risk vulnerability they have been warned off, but you just move it to 
"Future" without comment... I'm not sure if that's the best thing to do 
really...
