Greetings All !
Newbie here! Just installed PostNuke yesterday and Autotheme today.
Didn't realize at first that PostWrap came from this particular website, so
I did a Google search for "+postnuke +PostWrap".
The very FIRST item that Google lists is some sort of hacker's post on how
to hack into your server (I think) by feeding PostWrap a particular string
of data!
Link is:

Wondered if anybody had spotted that since the date on that is only a few
weeks old ?
Just thought I'd try to notify the author via this post.
Thanks!

Easy to block:
Under General configuration:
set: Compare URLs against URL Security? to YES
I'm actually surprised this got listed as an advisory. It's almost like
posting an advisory that a Windows server has Telnet open -- so configure
the system not to run it! Same thing here - tell Postwrap to only allow
URLs in your URL Security list.

This security setting is on by default. You must specifically turn it off
for this nebulos exploit to work.
Also, I have yet to see any working hack. What can be done?
