Please explain how this is not a security issue
17 March 2011 at 11:19am
As I understand it, an attacker could easily send a request for /?flush=1 a few times a second, thereby overriding the sites caching mechanism, which could cause trouble on busy sites.
I'm aware that you're not supposed to post security issues here. However, I'm pretty confident that my understanding, as outlined above, is missing something.
Can someone fill me in on what I'm missing?
