CVE-2012-3789 disclosure

[Sergio_Demian_Lerner]

Given that update ratio from 0.6.2 to 0.6.3+ has probably passed the 80% (*) barrier for a long time, I decided to publish the full CVE-2012-3789 vulnerability report, since that is my obligation with the community.

I encourage those who are working in the Satoshi client to peer review the report. Also I suggest to people working on alternate clients or derived versions to read the report and see if the attacks apply to other implementations.

Best regards, Sergio.
