You are wrong, because we do have proof of concepts. If we didn't have
them, then there would be no case.
But if there are video clips, images demonstrating impact - in which case
arbitrary file uploads (which is a write() call ) to a remote network, then
it is a vulnerability. It is not about the bounty, but rather about not
defying academic literature and widely recognised practise.
Attacking the arguer, won't make the bug to go away.
Best,
Nicholas.
