Spam being introduced into known vulnerabilities list

[Dave Ferguson]

Please note that someone has spammed the OWASPBWA Trac ticket system.  Ticket #s 166 to 189 are bogus. 

See http://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/owaspbwa/report/1

You might want to require registration or implement a Captcha.

Thanks for the heads up. This has happened a couple times in the past and I've cleaned it up manually.  I'd like to put a Captcha in place, but I don't think that SourceForge's hosted Trac has that option.  I'm trying to avoid requiring people to register for an account in order to avoid "barriers to entry" and get more people to submit security issues, but we may need to go that route.

I understand.  Hopefully it continues to occur infrequently and can be cleaned up manually.
