The SQLite team faced a similar problem last year, and Richard Hipp (the creator of SQLite) made almost the same comment:

"The malefactor behind this attack could just clone the whole SQLite source repository and search all the content on his own machine, at his leisure. But no: Being evil, the culprit feels compelled to ruin it for everyone else. This is why you don't get to keep nice things...."

I find this rhetoric so tiring.

Evil? Really? Seems a bit dramatic.
