> I'm tempted to just credit myself 1 monetary unit in production and just show them the statement.

I would be tempted too, though I could bet that this will be a termination of an employment, instead of the problem being fixed.

I would like to be proven wrong on this speculation..

Yes, that's what I thought as well.I'll just have to suck it up until the test environments are up again and provide a proof of concept exploit.

I'm just impatient because it's a really clever and somewhat complex hack that challenges some multi-threading and transactionability assumptions some people mande and I can't really talk about it(which I'd love to share with my peers).

Raducule, did you did CYA (cover your ass)? E-mail(s) to higher ups responsible in case of a fuck-up that most likely will happen in the future? Do it now if you didn't, or "wave and smile" if you did. Let them burn if you are ignored, no longer your problem.

Not just that, I would expect criminal charges to follow.
