Hi Brian,

This is absolutely template related - apologies on this not being clear.

That all being said, we're not really wishing to provide information that
allows people to exploit a vulnerability prior to people having time to
patch it, so we're not going to publish the example of how to trigger this
-- so I hope that info helps.
