I'm beginning to suspect that compromises attributed to this bug on 
Linux hosts were coincidental.  They could have happened via exploits 
of other problems.  That's because no-one has any forensics data or 
logs that indicate this particular bug as an attack route.

However, the chance is not worth taking in practice, so upgrade time it 
is.
