I'm not sure that I agree with the author having to provide the proof. The author is not responsible for the action or inaction of Microsoft. Too me, his proof is limited to only a working example the exploit itself. At this stage it is up to Microsoft to either confirm or deny it as an exploit and if so, whether they are doing anything about it.

I love open sharing of information but it must show a certain degree of responsibility.
I've suspended the article for now and have contacted Microsoft. I am hoping we can have the article back up soon.

Good use of ethics. Sadly, some people have already seen the article and seem interested in trying it out. On the other hand, yay go CP authors.

I was late to the party and missed this one
I'm not interested in using the exploit but it's good to know about them.

Good call, Chris.
I wasn't, now I am, then I won't be anymore.

Was it just me or CodeProject website was down for last 5 min... earlier I was unable to post answer and then the website itself was not opening!

Same problem, site didn't load last 5 min or so.
So no wasn't just you

We added a new server to the cluster - something we've done a million times before - and for some reason it caused the others to go nutso. It was removed, the others settled down.

Nothing happens when I click on the links on the following page:

I use Google Chrome if that changes anything.

Yes, I just gave you the link without the query parameter if you couldn't access my page =)
The "Download now" icon do not work for me. Nothing happens when I click on it. Same thing for "Edit item" and "Delete this item".
<input type="image" name="ctl00$MC$Feeds$ctl01$F$RunBtn" id="ctl00_MC_Feeds_ctl01_F_RunBtn" title="Download Now" src="../../Images/loading_blue.png" onclick="javascript:WebForm_DoPostBackWithOptions(new WebForm_PostBackOptions("ctl00$MC$Feeds$ctl01$F$RunBtn", "", false, "", "javascript:void(0);", false, false))" style="height:16px;width:16px;border-width:0px;">

I think it is not allowed to vote less than three without a comment. But it happened to my article.
Till yesterday, I got only fives (not so many ). But today, somebody honoured it 2 without a reason/comment. The link of my article is
Client Templating with jQuery
Any inputs?

Yeah, you're not supposed to be allowed to, but ever since the tips/tricks stuff was introduced, the reliability of the rest of the site seems to have degraded.

Yes I feel also. But it must be taken care of.

I believe that happens when someone changes his vote. I guess one of the 5 voters decided to retract his 5 and replace it with a 2.
It's inevitable that you'll eventually get a non-5 vote these days. So don't worry too much about this, as it happens to nearly all articles that end up in the top-rated list

I didn't know that. Thanks for sharing.

Yeah and if you don't get at least one non-5 vote after 20 odd votes, then there's something fishy going on
|

Well there was that one author who got, what was it, 100 5-votes in a row? Though, with that post in the Lounge asking for 5-votes, something fishy was indeed going on.

Nish has pointed out this long standing issue.
When a member votes and a message is posted along with the vote, the member can edit the message to remove the "My vote of...".
I'm going to make a change that disallows this and have removed the message that had been doctored.
