Additionally, any WebDNA 5.0 server is vulnerable to a misinformed search statement being passed through a URL resulting in the dump of memory. As I said, this error was my fault, no harm there, however, at this point I am more concerned about the security implications of memory being dumped to end users. On Dec 22, 2004, at 9:43 AM,
