Wow! If VUPEN's "product" has been leaked, then it's not worth as much to their clients. I wonder if they'll disclose the whole lot and go looking for more 0day?

On second thought, I can't find any other sources on this story. If VUPEN can keep it quiet then it's not as much of a problem.

There's not much on this topic yet. @securityerrata started tweeting about it and trying to find out more: https://twitter.com/securityerrata/status/210550374627676160. Could be a hoax, or VUPEN keeps it quiet. We'll probably never know.

This isn't true - the person tweeting about it said they had no evidence and was just asking for a comment, and VUPEN categorically denied it. https://twitter.com/w3bd3vil/status/210574409046556672

Yet look at all the morons taking it as truth and tweeting like crazy.

The tweet that started it from @securityerrata "Dear @Vupen, we have received reports that your site was compromised and ~ 130 0-day stolen this year. Any comment?" already has been deleted.

Nothing to see here, only possibly some lawyer will get fatter at the expense of people spreading disparaging rumors.
