Ok not supporting the obvious, but it's not really 8 products that are 
insecure.  It's one DLL.

Had the team responsible for the DLL done their job right, then the "8" 
packages that use the DLL would not be an issue.

Seems that the team writing the DLL didn't bother to check their specs and 
what the hell is anyone doing writing remote executable functions into a 
DLL in the first place!  Especially one that is tied into "Ingress" security.

Sheesh.

Sack the team and get a new ingress Malware team.
