[$] Ripples from Stack Clash

In one sense, the Stack Clash vulnerabilitythat was announced on June 19 has not had a huge impact: thus far, atleast, there have been few (if any) stories of active exploits in thewild. At other levels, though, this would appear to be an importantvulnerability, in that it has raised a number of questions about how thecommunity handles security issues and what can be expected in the future.The indications, unfortunately, are not all positive.
