I must say I think this has been blown out of proportion a bit. I still think it would be difficult to exploit. You need to MITM it which is possible, but hassle.

It is blown up a bit. MITM and the language updater running at that time aswell I think. Plus patches are rolling out already

The patch being pushed by ISP's leaves me a little bemused . Most wont push that at all. As the isp standpoint would be not our monkey's. ?

I would second the MITM idea, might be worth your while if you've the patience.
