Nick,
The bug was not discovered until well after St. Louis. Following an investigation and suspected cause, FIRST engineering staff began a testing sequence prior to the Einstein Weekend. It was during that testing that the interaction of all the components was found. Please remember it is the specific Cisco firmware, with the Dlink AP of a certain type that suffers the vulnerability.
