Not sure what your environment looks like but the systems I manage are locked down and it's typically difficult to get them changed. We have hundreds of systems ( desktop, server and HPC systems) that are all the same rev with all the same packages. A large number of vendor packages and internally developed packages have to be re-qualified everytime anything is changed. So we don't change them often.
so you're a year behind on any security fixes.... why are you worried about this one, then?
This seems like it has more potentiol to impact users in my environment that are using a web browser to access sites outside our firewall. It seemed like a reasonable question to me as it looke like it might be easily updated. I did not realize that once the OS was vaulted, there were no more updates. Now I know so thanks...
