Re: Apache Exploit Code

[Keith Winston]

Why would you need exploit code? Just download the patch and apply.

An exploit code could be used to check 1) if the bug existed prior to the patch and 2) if the patch corrects the problem. Saying "blindly apply the patch" is probably sufficient for many of us, me included. But in the spirit of free source code, people might want to study and check themselves. That's only healthy in my opinion. Of course, villains might want the exploit code for other reasons :-)

It appears from the content of your post and your l33t h4ck3r name at hotmail.com that you are a lazy script kiddie.
