Comment (by sarciszewski):

 I requested a CVE identifier this week, the patch was submitted in June.
 I've reported the avenue to exploitation to your security team.

 The actual exploitation (which I will not discuss publicly) is not
 trivial, and I don't expect most script kiddies are capable of doing so.
