Are you satisfied with that? Currently I only know from this email there is concern with regard to security but I don't know what it is and how big an impact it can possibly have. I could maybe go dig up that series and try to understand what is the security implication, but it would take a long time and I'm not sure I have the right technical background to make the call.
