Seems a bit overkill with a brand + domain name for every new vulnerability.

Don't get me wrong, it's a nice find and all, but I'm really distracted by all the fluff.

That's on you, though. The name doesn't cost anything, but it does make the vulnerability easier to talk about.
I suspect the domain literally cost money...
It cost me $4 to help get the word out on a bug that is being actively exploited right now, stealing valuable property. I am good with that.
Where do you buy a $4 domain?
based on the `whois milksad.info` Domain registrar is Namecheap :shrug:
Porkbun? I buy under a dollar domains from them frequently
Eh, let the security consultants have their moment. Also it's a great name. "Running bx seed on 3.x versions with a system time of 0.0 always generates the following secret: milk sad wage cup reward..."
we had so much fun trying to figure out the icon!
Milk sad is ok.

“Wage cup reward” is almost poetry …
