The one for r465710 would have been sent then, but r453380 happened on 2
November 2017 and wasn't addressed until bug 223797 was opened on 21
Nov. To the security team's credit, though, the bug received quick
response.
This is getting a bit off track. This thread was more about bring up an
observed pattern that is potentially a serious problem, inviting
community support, and hoping it will spur the right people to solving
what needs solving.
Thanks you for your responses.
