Wonder what market forces resulted in them offering more for #OpenBSD exploits 🤔

@mulander I thought you meant "them offering more for OpenBSD exploits than for Linux exploits", in which case I'd say "carum est quod rarum est".
But looks like you meant "more than before for OpenBSD exploits".
Note that the change in price is temporary, so I'd guess one of their customers has a single OpenBSD target that they very badly want to pwn.

@mulander
also, I think selling exploits should be illegal.

@Wolf480pl a target they want to pwn or perhaps some of the vulns they had stacked up became moot recently - they stated they want to keep at least 2 working ones per platform.

@mulander this definitely should be illegal.
