I think this deserves own CVE-identifier as Joomla did announce security \
vulnerability. As far as I know the vulnerability was described as "Information \
Disclosure" not patch disclosure. Path disclosures should be fixed from software \
also, but usually it is a problem in web-server configuration. Do you have more \
information about issue CVE-2011-2488? Still no reply from Joomla security team \
regarding issue CVE-2011-2488. I asked more details nearly a week ago.

Btw. I would use domain example.org in advisories if I were you. You might not always \
want to keep that attacker.in domain.

Best regards,
Henri Salo
