What I mean is: why can't anyone contribute valuable information to the

If you're a 15 year old kid and you just discovered a way to own the
latest IOS, for example, how do you know who to tell about it?

If I was such a clever 15 year old I would go to Google and enter "contacting cisco ios security"
which would lead me to ->
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/products_security_advisories_listing.html
which would lead me to ->

Same exercise can be repeated for most vendors you can choose.
