Microsoft is ticking off a lot of researchers this week by claiming that those who dump proof-of-concept exploits for vulnerabilities they have not responsibly disclosed are enabling criminal activity, and that Microsoft will track them and bring cases against them.

Somehow Microslop is surprised that security researchers are unhappy after pissing on them regularly. Good that this is not my problem.

He said he likely wouldn’t be dropping anything til July, June should be “safe” (as safe as running windows is normally anyhow)

Patch Tuesday. Gonna be some wild zero-days exploits dropping. Windows updates go live at 12p PST, fireworks to follow.

I got the month wrong, but because the guy that’s been steady dumping 0days is sounding like a school shooter on Microsoft support boards. An actual quote:
I might sound like crazy idiot who is whinning around but I have proof for every single word I said, I just can’t release it yet. Why ? Microsoft still has chains in my hands, it’s been like this for years and I just can’t stay silent anymore. I hope I can release the documents soon.
Mark this date July 14th, I will make sure your bones are shattered that day. Nothing will be released this June (or maybe I will release smtg, depending on circumstances).
