We operate on the assumption that if a developer says it's a security issue, it's worth assigning a CVE for. But you wind up with uninformative descriptions like the one below :-/ - Steve ====================================================== Name: CVE-2008-3329 Status: Candidate URL: http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2008-3329 Reference: CONFIRM:http://links.twibright.com/download/ChangeLog Unspecified vulnerability in Links before 2.1, when "only proxies" is enabled, has unknown impact and attack vectors related to providing "URLs to external programs."
