Dear All,
I guess, we all have to urgently apply workaround, following, say, this:

At least those of us who still have important multi user machines running Linux.
I should have said CentOS 7. Older ones (CentOS 6 and 5) are not vulnerable.
(Yes, me too, I do have a couple, thank goodness, the rest are already not ;-)
Luckily, no multi-user CentOS 7 machines here, only single user workstations.
Good luck, everybody!

PS Sorry about a bit premature first message: I realize not that I was in the same state of mind as back then when there was remote root SSH vulnerability. It was long ago, but some may still remember that...
Have a productive weekend, everybody.
