Hey, they had to do a whole lot of testing* before releasing a fix. Give
'em a break!
* Seeking avenues to blame somebody else before quietly slipping a

Security is one of those funny things. You can talk about being "more"
secure, but there's no such thing. A vulnerability is a vulnerability, and
even one makes you just as insecure as anyone else. Security is a binary
condition, either you are or you aren't.
