Reaction on X: Replies are mostly resigned humor mixed with pushback on urgency: one notes nobody has successfully exploited it yet and cites Anthropic's PoC as only working with a local MPTCP server, while another says there is no patch yet. Others question whether anything changed since the Oct 15 publication and joke that Cyber Essentials orgs are already patched.
