Confidence is the mother of success. Cockyness is a mother of a time bomb.
___
Full-Disclosure - We believe
goes out. Maybe that's
acceptable for whatever business you work in. Some of us
cannot afford to diddle around with vague warnings and
security patches we cannot even verify, much less a constant
stream of downtimes which may or may not be necessary.

Confidence is the mother
on it, but it is not ok for a
corporation to do the same? Since when were the people
who discover a vulnerability given exclusive rights to
further research that vulnerability?

ps. Condescension. How does a request for users to refrain from fooling with

A Kia Sephia still comes with seatbelts and airbags even though it
doesn't have a DVD player. Cable and DSL modems need to come with
built-in firewalls for the same reason. However it's pretty clear that
home cable modems are going to
be used to
relay spam. Like it or not, spammers use open proxies for their
dirty deeds and that makes these ports very relevant to email
transactions.
This practice is becoming more common, so I would suggest making
provisions for it in your firewall logging and/or reporting.
