I think this is very bad advisory. There is no detail and I was 
watching for company name 12 times. Stephen Kost is only get credit 
as "Some of the vulnerabilities fixed in the Critical Patch Update 
October 2005 were discovered and reported to Oracle by Stephen Kost 
of XXXXXXXXX Corporation" I think Stephen Kost should discover 
better company for security working. This company contributes 
nothing to discussion. Thank you but no advertisement on 
Fulldisclosure please!
