Ha, I was just about to go in here and say the same thing.

"Fortunately" some "white hat" hacker contacted us last year about another Metabase exploit. I gave him a 30 USD tip and ended up doing exactly what you are suggesting.

Now I'm glad that means I don't need to interrupt my vacation to fix this thing right now.

Here in Italy you get lucky if the company is not suing you :(
EDIT: I misunderstood.
That’s simply not true, sadly; you’re very much reliant on the company not attempting to sue you. Counter examples (not implying these have been successful, but it is also not unheard of to have the police show up at your door and collect all computers/phones etc. to investigate)
