[theme-reviewers] malicious code found in a theme in the codex

[Philip M. Hofer (Frumph)]

I'm going to agree with Mike on this one it's just not something even worrying about, it's inherit if the person goes through the trouble to find the svn's for things not publically accessable then they are just going to have to take on the consequences

  Don't forget that every old version of every checked-in theme file is available on subversion too; including security bugs and every bit of bad code, . This is the nature of open code repositories and should remain so.


  I don't think there is any point even thinking about this.
