We have a working exploit against Linux and OpenBSD, we are waiting for
CERT to publish their advisory.
As soon as that happens, or before if its taking too long, we'll publish the
exploit.
Since the problem is not being actively exploited (as far as we know), there
didnt seem to be a reason to post the exploit code with our advisory.
