Most comments are completely childish. I've been on both sides of the equation and believe me, mature people deal with this in a much cleaner way. Lot's of people find vulnerabilities bigger than this EVERY day. You just don't hear about them because they are quiet and respect the rules of engagement in Security: report and wait ENOUGH time (not just hit a huge website with a huge bug and expect it to be fixed immediately! Which they did, BTW, huge kudos to Github for their amazing response...)

Having read a lot on this issue, I'm certain @homakov tried to do The Right Thing (TM) and he just messed up due to inexperience and the kind of light-minded attitude that we all have had when we were young. I'm also sure he has learned a big lesson today and all his 0day vulnerabilities will be properly reported from now on instead of breaking hell loose on a Sunday evening.

Thanks @homakov, the Github team and everybody involved in the fixes!
