There is a sparc version avail for this bug, the bug was discovered by

just for people who don't know...or have forgotten...putting this:
   set noexec_user_stack = 1
   set noexec_user_stack_log = 1

Just look at http://secinf.net/info/unix/stack.txt for an explanation how to
remake the exploit code, to avoid these settings. This text where sent to
the Bagtraq sometime ago.

in your /etc/system file protects you against this.  it doesn't fix
the bug, but it stops the effects from being quite so "bad".

Yes, this method is very good, alas it could not be a panacea :(((
