Most do not relate -- only the first one (detailed earlier in July)
does, and then only if you have a file like view_page.html.

I have released a Minivend 3.14-6 which fixes the vulnerablility, and
also strengthens open() calls in general.

You can make the major fix to most any version of Minivend 3 with the
simple addition of 

	return undef if ! -f $file;

above the open() in Vend::Util::readfile.
