Also, maybe my time zones are wrong, but it seems like the engineer changed the bug status to "disclosed" late in the day Friday?
A corollary: Don't do sh*t late Friday that will fester over the weekend.
It makes me mental when people want to "close their week" by deploying a change to a public-facing system. Yes it feels great to check it off your list and start your weekend. But unless you're prepared to deal with it over the weekend -- and got buy-in from the rest of your team they're prepared to deal with it -- please don't.
