Click on 'current usage' in your account and it takes you to your current invoice, which is accessible via the URL that he mentions. It appears to be only the current months usage / invoice that is vulnerable.

Why do people use Heroku? I never understood the appeal. Oh.. because they have a good graphic designer. Lol. "Forget servers, instances, and VMs. Focus on processes." If that doesn't raise some red flags for you then you get what you deserve.

Yep, $212 million in value built in an extremely short time.

Because of a good graphic designer, sure.

I'm pretty appalled that you submitted this to, arguably, one of the most-visited sites for tech news, without at least giving them time to address the problem.

This isn't a case of something small going unnoticed, resulting in a bit of a laugh and giggle. This is people's billing details, and you've just explained how to exploit the bug in complete detail.

I'm really unhappy that this sort of thing even crossed your mind :/
