  Yes. There's no difference between regular support requests and security
issues. They demand a valid VxWorks license number before having a look at
the content of mails. But as I am only using devices that embed VxWorks, I've
none and this is a no go.

  Since Brocade has a fix, maybe VxWorks did it silently at the first place.

  BTW Brocade has confirmed that any switch running pre-3.2 code is
vulnerable, including models 3800, 3200 and 2800. Latest models will all run
Linux instead.
