Dear Nekral,

I have not yet written an exploit/PoC/demo, but think it should be
rather easy to do. Looking at the recent DSA-1500 also, I ask you to
change the severity of this bug to "critical - root security hole",
and of course to fix things quickly. (I would change the severity
myself, but I think as a result of bug #299007 am not allowed.)

Thanks, Paul
