Hi Thor, Microsoft is maintaining a list of binary planting bugs they've fixed here: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/security/advisory/2269637 You will find our name in some of these advisories. Calling the above effort a "Binary Planting Clean-up Mission" was merely a benign poetic exercise, and this is *not* an official name of any internal mission at Microsoft to the best of my knowledge. You can learn something about our interaction with Microsoft here: http://blog.acrossecurity.com/2010/08/binary-planting-update-day-7.html Cheers, Mitja

Who is your contact at MSFT? Who is it that has told you they have a "Binary Planting Clean-up Mission" and where do they mention you as having anything to do with it? If you are going to claim MSFT's actions as substantive to your agenda, how about provide some details? t-----Original Message----- From: ACROS Security Lists [mailto:lists () acros si] Sent: Thursday, September 15, 2011 1:41 PM To: 'Christian Sciberras' Cc: Thor (Hammer of God); full-disclosure () lists grok org uk; bugtraq () securityfocus com Subject: RE: [Full-disclosure] Microsoft's Binary Planting Clean-Up Mission Hey Chris,I bet Microsoft actually like stating they just fixed yet another severe bug. Zero-day fixing is big business, you know....even if "zero" is past a few "days".I don't think Microsoft gains much from being able to saythey fixedyet another bug - maybe if it were a bug they found internally and fixedproactively,but not like this. And I'm sure they'd rather be doingsomething else than fixing:fixing a product costs a lot, and it generates no revenue.
