Vendor X released a limited statement to their customers describing the issue - and their view on it. The large incumbent vendor that we all know and love has confirmed the issue, and released a "patch" to some of their customers. Vendor X also went on to state that at no time did their boxes crash, mis-forward, reset, or have any issue resulting from the events of the past weekend.
Sigh, the motto "be liberal in what you accept and conservative in what you send" applies to BOTH parties. The failure of one party not to liberally accept what is received does not excuse the sending party from being conservative in what they send. And vice-versa. Just because one vendor has issued a patch does not excuse the other vendor.
