Hi everyone,

Today we committed to SVN the code that solves an important issue [1]
reported by Floyd concerning the way w3af was generating fuzzable requests
based on form's elements. It was one of those (probably common) silent and
hard-to-find bugs. I'd like to super-thank Floyd for spending time trying to
detect the bug.

Good news! The implemented solution means a great improvement in the
framework performance. Specially, if we take in consideration that the
variants generation routine may be called many times during the scanning
process.

For more details on the bug see [1]. After understanding the problem feel
free to test w3af in the described contest or even take a look to the code
change and propose new improvements ;-)

Thanks,

Javier Andalia
