The shared secret in the config I tested, believe it or not, was public.
Edit.. now try editing a config with this set, since it's read only
No. That would be woofread.
The shared secret was the word public.
Kinda says what they can do with the config itself and a simple string.
ah, but that only gives 'public' access to file, even when shared secret, public, is known.. meaning what the clown was saying is no longer true.
