OK, that is getting nearer;
but as far as I can see, the guy in this case
was running some kind of web development server (Mambo) on his machine,
and a hacker had targeted this particular server.

I wouldn't be doing anything so esoteric,
so still wouldn't feel in great danger.
Also, I was struck by the amount of trouble the man had to go to
to work out what had happened.
I wouldn't be up to that, so SELinux in this case
would be wasted on me.
