Ok, maybe not, but I did win a little cash price for a “GAP“.. I know, I know… I didn’t name the contest, I just submitted a winning entry.

I know! “potential winner” Gee + Fancy!
It’s still pretty cool, to get payed for something I was going to anyways
The bug I found in Glassfish was pretty obscure: WebSecurityManager.checkPermission NPE with custom JACC impl, and pretty boring even though it may sound exciting since it was in tehe security infrastructure, I can’t think of any possible way it could be exploited even if it wasn’t already patched.
Still… I’m pretty happy about it. Not only have I gotten a ton of use out of Sun’s really superior application server Glassfish. Now they are even paying me to use it!
Top that JBOSS! Send me $$$!!! You too WebSphere! Where is my $$$???
Honey Baked Goodness!
