Hi,

well, it's not new that some vulns are reported on personal websites and
public/private forums. Blog is quite the same as a little forum...
But many guys also send their researches to full-disclosure lists. And
that, often before to post them on their sites.

Another question that i'm asking to myself is what about a
standardization of the vulns reports. In fact we often find the same
sections in a vuln report, but the reports don't have the same design...
I think it'll be usefull to could have reports written in a specific way.

Just an idea...
Sorry for bad english

/JA

This happened with IIS 5.1 Source Disclosure Under FAT/FAT32 Volumes
Using WebDAV issue

Is this a new trend or something, this IIS vulnerability release was
similar as a previous IIS 5/6 500-100.asp "SERVER_NAME" issue
published via (same) Norwegian blog.
Some possible problems:
-report format used in blogs
-possible unofficial blog comments (anonymous exploit codes published
etc.)
-vendors has no time to look for new blog entries

Juha-Matti
