@ManyRoads "We notified everyone a month ago about this exploit!"
*Notes not a single message on the kernel mailing list to notify developers.
Something is really fishy about this whole thing. Who the hell creates a whole domain name around an exploit they found? This has all the feel of a promotional stunt.

@Shdwdrgn As I understand the exploit had been in the wild for about 10 years (I think I read). It sounded like it was more a simple code bug rather than an actual exploit. In any case, it's fixed/ patched. I don't know that anyone ever took advantage of the 'feature' before the door was closed; rather it was simply there.
