$10K iDefense Challenge won by anonymous hacker

The Security Fix blog reports, along with the latest round of Microsoft exploits, that an anonymous hacker has won the iDefense Vulnerability Challenge.

What a payday eh? Ethical Hacking does have its uses!
Exerpt:

“Speaking of iDefense (scoop alert!) … remember back in February when I wrote about iDefense offering their “quarterly vulnerability challenge,” a $10,000 purse to anyone who could come to them with a previously unknown “critical” flaw in Windows? Well, iDefense paid that prize to the anonymous hacker who reported the .ART flaw.”
