Possible Security Hole

This may be nothing, but just in case..

I did a google-search for "getControlCameraTransform"

http://www.google.ca/search?hl=en&q=getControlCameraTransform&btnG=Google+Search&meta=

and the 5th item down

conn->getControlCameraTransform(0,&cam);. cam.getColumn(3, &camPos);. cam.getColumn(1, &camVec);. RayInfo camRay;. camRay.object = 0;. gClientContainer. ...
burningza.googlepages.com/guiCrosshair.cpp - Similar pages - Note this

Is a .cpp file of guiCrosshair.cc

..either someone is hosting it, or perhaps google just located it by walking the site, but I thought you might want to know

All 8 results for that control come up as GG resources in GG's resource area.

You didn't look at the same search engine as QJ - The source code is on this site, some blog site:

http://burningza.googlepages.com/
http://burningza.googlepages.com/guiCrosshair.cpp

Which appears to be the homepage of this user:

I'm assuming it's unintentional somehow.

Yeah, that's most likely unintentional considering BurNinG's standing with the community. You all know you're using his radar code...

Most likely he has those stored or hosted for some reason (I've put stuff on my sites' FTP before for transferring between comps easily, for instance) and doesn't have a robots.txt set up to block spidering of the folder/files.

Yeah... that was unintentional. I usually upload my files there when I want to post files/links on the forums. Will remove asap.

EDIT: Removed... Thanx Google, bitch!
