Hi @achiron,
may I know the reason why this was approved? As you said the bug is already fixed. This implied the developers already knew about it. So am I allowed to report bugs which are already fixed?
Kind regards

@secret.service, if you read the github issue and the HF20 post you will see that they fixed it because he reported it. He made it happen.
Hi @archion,
Ok. I see. But the issue was created in May and closed in June. Can I report bugs even if they are older than 14 days and already fixed?
Kind regards

Well, I didn't report the issue faster to utopian because I thought it is dangerous to tell publicly about this exploit. But then I saw steemitblog already published the info so I decided I can do it to.
Hi,
I fully understand your point but this does not answer my question from above. Can I report bugs which were closed months before?
Kind regards,

Pretty sure the 14 day rule doesn't apply to bug fixes. As long as the application is on the latest version then it is acceptable. I went and reviewed the guidelines because I also was confused on this point. Though that raises the question of whether or not someone can just report a bug from an application that hasn't been updated in months.
Hi,
Thank you for the feedback. Maybe I can ask someone at utopian for help here.
Kind regards

Regarding your query:Hey @secret.service
However, we constantly look for Quality.
There are several exceptions where we may overlook "guidelines" to appreciate a valuable post. This was one of it.
But obviously, we won't consider the mini-bugs or minor Issues reported on old versions. The decision depends on how much quality the post brings to the platform.
I hope I was able to answer your query.
If you want to ask any other query you can ask in
bug-huntersin our discordI did ask, and bug reports are not subject to the 14 day rule.
