You're commenting on 1 of 14 issues listed in http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=61798 I am perfectly capable of reading the CVE entries, and deciding, issue by issue, if it's worth fixing, and if so, how to fix it. However, being a security expert should not be a requirement for using a commericial OS. If these issues are worthy of fixing, they should be fixed in 10.2.8.
