If they discovered the AWS credential thing on December 1 after the security researcher reported it, and wouldn't have discovered it otherwise, and it could be the case that someone else found the exact same attack path first, shouldn't they reward him for making them aware of a problem they would not have otherwise noticed? That they wouldn't have fixed? That others that discovered the same attack path might otherwise still openly exploit to MITM all the traffic, to do arbitrary things with arbitrary user accounts?
