Re: [Full-disclosure] Who Do I Contact?



"If the vendor refuses to act upon the news of the vulnerability, then Full Disclosure is in order." (don't release the numbers of course but release a generic statement that "this" universtity is not secure.

Send a copy of the email to the University. Might want to include their local TV news as well. You'd be surprised how the alumni will react to get that fixed.

In order to give them one more shot you may wish to tell them on which date it will be publically released.

If there is a security hole in a site of an educational institute that exposes 
social security numbers and they have not fixed it even when told about it. Who 
can be contacted to get it done? Department of Education? If so anyone know a 
phone number I can call? Btw this is in the USA.
