I'm one of those who dislikes the idea of very minor updates, however I can still understand their relivance especially when there's an obvious security hole.

I've often been attacked for disliking minor updates, even by InfoPop (in a friendly way =]), yet I'm now somewhat confused as to where v6.3.0.1 has gone given that there's such a strong feeling toward having them?

Only the most familiar UBB users will be aware of the custom fix for that MASSIVE security breach in 6.3 with the search function. I've also seen new exploits on IRC now that allow people to directly access the topics thanks to being able to ID them through the search in the first place.

These days I can still surf onto most UBB v6.3 using sites and see all the private topic titles, somebody with one of the new exploits could thus hack in and view these. So why the fux hasn't the key v6.3.0.1 update come out?

This is a major security problem and not everybody mods their UBB and most won't be aware of it, so why are InfoPop being so idle as to allow this problem to continue? I'm currently going around as many v6.3 boards as I can find that aren't modded and helping them to temp-fix the search bug, but why should I be doing this?

No minor update takes a full month and so I assume v6.3.1 is now next on the list, although for those already hacked v6.3 forums it'll be too late.
