Comment(by NishaKitty):

 Isn't v3.0.0 a little far off to be leaving a security vunrability in the
 client? v3.0.0 has 62 active tickets and I see no release date at all?
 Considering this vunrability is classified as Highly Critical and the
 report has "Successful exploitation may allow execution of arbitrary
 code.", I find this a little irresponsible unless I am misunderstanding
 the situation?

 P.S Glad to see you guys have reCaptcha now but would be nice if it was
 just for registrations.
