For IP.  Apparently a clerk produced a redacted PDF that retained the
original classified text in the underlying file.

Surprising that no one but NPR seems to be covering this story.

Technical Error Reveals Classified Info on Death of Italian Agent
by Vicky O'Hara

Morning Edition, May 2, 2005 · The U.S. military issued a report this weekend on the killing of an Italian intelligence agent in Iraq. Classified parts of the report were blacked out, but computer users were able to access sensitive information about U.S. military operations in an online version of the report.
