Thank you for pointing out this exploit. I have removed your previous
SSH pub key from GForge's database as well as the autherized_keys2 files
from your home. Beside these I emailed you a new invitation to extras.

Please fill in a form again and try your new key in about an hour after
you complete the registration.

We will check all keys on garage and inform those who are affected.
