    The link to the article is below. Since this is a week old, perhaps Red Hat’s patch has propagated enough to patch the other Linux distros!

      An attacker must be connected to your local network, so either physical access or remote control of another machine on your network.

      I would call this a low level vulnerability for most home users and an issue of concern in business.
