Good Afternoon,
Thank you very much for the detailed response.
A quick look through some of the attachments indicates that there may be some sensitive information contained within.
e.g:
https://fyi.org.nz/request/1298/response...
If this information is used for authenticating to sensitive services (i.e. appears to be for dps/credit card processing) they should be changed immediately as the information included in the response should now be considered public.
Yours sincerely,
Chris Smith
