Depends which version.  It appears that previous versions of the 
script are insecure.  Knowing that one hole has already been found, 
there could be others.  Security researchers have this saying about 
software vulnerabilities.  The fish usually swim together.  If they 
caught the big one, then more than likely there are probably some 
smaller fish still poking around in that pond...
