That's funny; it seems to me that YOUR proof-of-concept, if it is what you claim it to be, is much more dangerous. It would not be difficult for somebody to capture your demo, post it on some online forum as something benign, or as a "safe" demo. Or, for that matter, to rewrite portions of it to allow it to spread more easily on its own. You're giving the hackers and script kiddies more to work with than Secunia or anybody else. For that matter, the *smart* companies and individuals I've seen lately only distribute the proofs-of-concept or dangerous exploits to those who legitimately need them - Apple or antivirus companies. I suggest you follow their lead. Frankly, Chris, after doing some quick research on you, I'm not inclined to believe that your life is an example of exemplary ethics. Distributing malware, even with the permission of the receiving party, is not something that an ethical person would do as casually as you do.
