Subject: Looking for article - hackers steal fw code

I'm looking for a URL or article (I belive last year) where hackers broke
into a site and obtained source for a particular firewall. 

Apparently this was from a firewall vendor partner site.  The hackers broke
through the firewall to get to the source.

Due to insinutations that I may be slandering a company, or making negative
statements that can't be disproved, I won't name the firewall.  However it
does use stateful inspection.  ;)
