This is nothing new. (Score 3, Interesting)

I worked for an Army contractor in the 80's. I found flaws weekly. I caught flack for each one I pointed out. In the end they made me data security manager so I would just fix them and stop pointing them out to the customer. I was told I would go to jail more than once. You have to do what is right for the customer. In this case the customer was the US Army. Any company should see this is the only way to to fix holes. See them, report them, fix them. -Steve
