He released it to make Valve act. There were no doubt countless working
exploits in private already. I know the crashing of my servers has been
slowly rising in the past months... This is not the fault of the person
who released a working exploit. It's the fault of Valve, who knew of the
problem months ago and should have released the patch then.
