Greetings Brother David MacDonald and other List member,

Thanks for response. I must admit that publishing finding makes no
sense, yet I look at it from point of view of helping other bank
and financial institutes to protect themselves. This findings may
save them money by helping do it themselves.

>From another point of view, can findings of penetration test that
was conducted at customer premises be used to submit patch request
to application vendor for fixes? Would this be consider ethical
because invitation was from customer not vendor?

Many thank for reading and responding
Jez
