Just n' update: DAP searches for all its mirrors from mirrorsearch.speedbit.com I have no knowledge about HOW the mirrors are gathered.
Then your report should have been titled "Maybe DAP can be tricked to download malicious file, maybe not, I haven't got any idea because I haven't bothered to find out". Or even better, you shouldn't have bothered posting it because it has zero content. "There might or might not be a vulnerability in application X" is NOT information. Uninformed speculation is NOT information. What you actually observed was DAP not being tricked and not downloading a malicious file. What you wrote was the exact opposite. Your report is fraudulent and utterly dishonest. cheers, DaveK -- Can't think of a witty .sigline today....
