I understand Vendzilla's point of view. However, I do not agree that people who used and/or paid for the software shouldn't know this.

I have no experience with Comus, have very limited experience in the adult webmaster world, but have been around the Internet since 9600bps modems. Based on the little information I know, it is unlikely that the people using Comus would have gotten an email from the scripters saying that this information has been exposed.

The downside of exposing a hole like this is that you also let people who are going to use the information for bad purposes know about it too. If that's the price people have to pay for getting to know that they've been exposed, then so be it; but by no means should this issue have gone unoticed by the customers of Comus.

I do see a clear intention of Raven Core to give Comus a bad name, but he's not lying about the main issue: Comus has a hole. That's a fact. Furthermore, readers should not be distracted by the whole "Comus sucks"-themed posts and they should look and focus on the real problem. Call me Master of the Obvious, but that's the way I see it.

The fact that I got to see the links that were posted in the first post confirmed the seriousness of the issue. If I hadn't seen them, I'd be calling bullshit or at least have my doubts of how bad the problem is.
