Shining a spotlight on an issue is completely different than the issue already existing.
- cadamsdotcom 2y agoNot shining a spotlight is worse. The important thing is providing time to address the found vulnerability, ie. responsible disclosure. For which OP has indeed provided a timeline. The debate has long since been settled comprehensively in favor of openness.
- azinman2 2y ago2025-01-30: Hirsch asked for an update as to whether clients running vulnerable systems have been alerted (no response as of publication) 2025-02-14: CVE-2025-26793 assigned 2025-02-15: publication So two weeks after they don’t respond what they’re going to do with their clients this gets published? I’d hardly call that responsible.
- shawabawa3 2y agoI don't know why you picked a random date 2 weeks before publication instead of the relevant one: 2024-12-27: Current vendor of MESH identified as Hirsch (subsidiary of Vitaprotech Group) and contacted They were contacted 7 weeks before publication and 2025-01-11: Hirsch product security responds requesting details and are asked if they intend to alert clients They responded 5 weeks before publication, and so were aware of the issue for at least 5 weeks before it was disclosed, during which time they did nothing about it
