Re: A single line drawn by Picasso, an Iraqi artist, and a buffer overflow.

Just one thought to add here:

The big difference to overcome that I see is that, with a physical
auction, there is a finite (usually one) number of goods on sale. 
Dave's painting could be auctioned because there's only one of them,
and the painting goes to the highest bidder.

Exploit packs, however, could be more readily copied.  Why sell it to
the highest bidder when you could sell it to all the bidders?  That
model relies on the sellers to more or less voluntarily adhere to a
set of standards (Thou shalt not sell multiple copies...), which
strikes me as difficult to enforce.
