No story here...
After all the problem is announced after it was fixed already. Other than warning people that the older version had vulnerabilities, there is no story here.

Run the latest version and you don't have to worry about the vulnerability, unlike certain other company's suite which leaves you open even when the vulnerability is published and known. Heck, they will even put extras in for you when you trust them.
