According to ISS, http://xforce.iss.net/xforce/alerts/id/152, they claim
that functional exploit code is already in use on the Internet.

This is for the DoS attack / privilege escalation requiring an account.
Nothing to serious (compared to the remote holes). Can't be used remotely as
far as is known (although if anyone knows otherwise please pipe up).

It's almost exactly 3 weeks old (exploit released publicly) at this point, a
bit late to start worrying.
