Valdis,

ignorant.

Whitehats won't go anywhere near the Cisco code for
the same reason they won't
go near the Windows code - even if they feel morally
justified in peeking at
the source code, it's still illegal to do so.  So
you need at least a slightly
gray hat to even consider the idea - so only
grey/black hats will benefit.
