shttpd/0.3.1 - give credit where credit is due
The reason of this blogpost is to give credit where credit is due: Rimmi Devgan and Avanti Limaje, two MS students with the Computer Science Department of the State University of New York at Stony Brook found a serious security vulnerability in my little web server software called shttpd. I wanted to thank them in public (as I call this dark and lonely corner of the web).
The release made it to the Root.cz, online Czech magazine about Linux. Have no idea why. Maybe because I made the first release in 9 years, probably the record in history of software. Or maybe not.
