you're damned if you do, damned if you don't mate.
I don't believe for one second your "review" will ever yield any result other than "no we were safe".
Especially since via-via-via-IM I was showing you how the night before and you didn't get it.
You'd never own up to the site being vulnerable anyways, and it's that fact that makes me shudder with revulsion.
Terrible coding practices combined with a willingness to lie make for a grim picture indeed.

We don't discuss administrative actions. At all. Ever. No matter how many times you ask, demand or otherwise say the same thing over and over and over again. Our policy is simply that we don't, and to be fair you only have access to enough information to speculate.
I'm not claiming. I'm stating outright that customer data was never at risk. We've also said there will be a blog which will detail what occurred and what was wrong.
Your policy of not discussing administrative actions is one thing (and IMO is currently being used to shield CCP from public humiliation), but if you read the post on Helicity's blog, you'll see that what you are saying with respect to the vulnerability is demonstrably false. If you do not honestly address the issues in at least the same detail Helicity did, then I think it's time to take this to the media, because, as it currently stands, there is no good reason to believe anything you are saying, but there are a lot of good reasons to not believe anything you say.
In short: Customer data was in danger through code injected into the signature. CCP did ignore the warnings of numerous people. You are trying to avoid admitting to your errors. Prove me wrong and I'll happily apologise, but simply claiming I'm wrong without proof is simply not good enough.

Originally by: Gnulpie At least that CCP Sreegs guy seems to do good work right now.
Props for that. I can imagine way better things to do than talking with angry EVE people on the forums 
QFT The people who are probably directly responsible (be it coders or management or whatever) still have to show their faces. I doubt it's going to happen though. The next time we hear anything from say CCP Alice, CCP Paradox or CCP Elais will probably be when they launch this "feature rich" forum a 2nd (3rd?4th?) time with security holes fixed (again...) and no other fixes at all. And this are only the "public" faces to the new forum. I simply refuse to believe that they are completely inept and like to believe they got extreme pressure from management or something. Time for a Hilmar devblog or something imho...

love the defense by way of "prove we got the emails" when theres no way you actually can do that short of working at CCP.
I said if you have evidence send it to me. I never said prove we got them. If you're going to try to reword a post you should probably not do so with the complete text of the statement quoted.
Still a crap defense man, we CANT get the emails from your site so theres no way TO prove that we sent them. Its a stupid defense when all you have to do is get whoever browses ccp@security email FOR those emails, assuming that isnt you. Unless of course you cant send them an email or talk to them or something. Which would be a ****ty way to run a company tbh

Nobody who has ever come forward with a legitimate security concern, with full details of what the exploit was, that they were not actively exploiting themselves, has ever been actioned against by us. There is a right way and a wrong way to report things, as I've said.
If that is the case, why did CCP ignore Virtuozzo's and Helicity's attempts to warn you?
Quote:
It's against policy to discuss the any detail whatsoever about an ban so I'm not allowed to do so. I can say that you don't have access to determine how any ban in our system was instituted.
In fact we do. We can just ask Cat. I'm more inclined to believe him than you tbqFh.

I can assure you that I never came close to an IM from you. I did see some information that lead directly to patching the problem, but I never personally got any IM from anyone from you. If I was somehow "not owning up to the site being vulnerable" I wouldn't have said it was vulnerable and I wouldn't have had it taken down.
I don't know what you're seeing from your perspective but it sounds to me like you're being taken for a ride by someone else or there's a really really hilarious miscommunication chain here. |

There are 3 problems with your post.
A) It's premature, pending investigation but from what I recall though the signatures would allow HTML you could not execute script, which kills a lot of your assertions.
Horsedung. And you know it. Javascript and CSS were confirmed to work.
I appreciate your need to save face, but your guys made an unforgivable screwup, own up to it and instill me with the feeling you guys are deserving of our trust.
If I knew it I'd say so. I'm not here to save face and I'd ask that you not continue to mischaracterize me. IF when we continue our investigation I find out I am wrong and you WERE actually able to inject script then I'll say so in my blog. The word from the people who checked it earlier today was that FROM MEMORY they didn't believe script could be injected.
Everything's not some shadowy conspiracy. I appreciate that you feel wronged somehow and I can't change that. I have no need whatsoever to save anyone's face, my job is to determine and respond to the problem. Honestly.
:Edit: to respond to the rest, I can say that we have internal procedure which include peer review and pen testing. Part of the investigation will be to determine if that was done and if not why, etc... That's probably mostly going to be internal, but it's not something I'm not thinking about.
You'd trust the people who made the mistake in the first place more than the people who tried to warn you about it?

Hey helicity, how you know his name? Sreegs: An whats all this about you not having ppl on yer IM anymore?
lol these ppl are all closer than we think they are...
I was a player for a long time. When I joined the company I removed a bunch of people from IM and had to leave the game as per policy. No huge mystery there.

IM saying we cant provide this proof being that we cant get into ccp@security to get copies of those emails sent.
YOU who work at CCP, supposedly AS security, should either be able to access that email account or email the guy that can and can see if those emails do in fact exist.

Bolded the part you seem to have missed.
But whatever, Screegs. I don't want to jump on your case. I've cancelled my credit card and I doubt that I'll be renewing that data with CCP unless CCP post a very honest and open discussion on how they will not in future endanger my computer, or the data I entrust them with. A broken game is one thing, but bad security has repercussions in the real world.

cause we work for CCP Internal affairs and can provide this proof? Again, using the defence of "prove it to me" when we dont have access to internal CCP documents isnt a defense

If someone had found a way to get me an IM from him I'd have no problem saying so. I don't think that was the case here. I did have some information forwarded to me, that was used. But I had no IM convo tmk. |

This is the real problem. I mean, we're not talking about some ingame bug that makes you a billionaire instantly - which would be bad enough but hurts no one outside the game.
We're talking about a glaring security hole that puts every forum user in the risk of having his computer hacked/infected.
Cat (and potentially others) shouldn't have been punished and banned for this. They should have been rewarded with a free life time subscription instead. And I remind you that Cat reported the issue first and then - when his warning got ignored - demonstrated it for all to see.

Man, jeez, give them folks at CCP some time to investigate what exactly happend, where the vulnerabilities are, what communication channels failed (if they failed) etc.
This takes time and such things can't be properly done in few hours!
You guys want thorough investigation and at the same time you want results, blogs and whatnot already yesterday. That's not working!
If there is still no public reply in a few days, THEN is the time to make a huge uproar, but for now let them do their work.
Ranting, venting anger and frustration is good and fine, but after that, let it go and calm down. |

yeah, that's the info I was giving via an extremely convoluted route, but this is irrelevant to the discussion, I just wanted to make sure you knew where it was coming from and why I'm skeptical of how sincere (and accurate) your blog post will be.
We'll be scrutinizing said blog post very closely, I hope you can find it in yourself to be honest and forthright in it.
