Cure53 just brought it to their attention, that's what this thread is about.
I'm simply questioning their justification/excuses for not fixing an issue Cure53 quite correctly flagged. Me opening an issue on Github that mirrors one from Cure53's audit report wouldn't be constructive.
The report doesn't close the issue. It just provides an explanation for the current state of the issue (along with a current workaround) and details the impact of how it affects users.
