Has this been patched in Scorpion or is it needed?

Thanks guys.
I was researching something else and saw a note to be sure that patch had been applied, so, even though I know Q4OSteam and Debian stays on top of things, I thought it wouldn't hurt to ask.

Its not like Windows where you can wait quite awhile for a fix. Fixes come out very quickly and news on the changes is easy to access.
Some changes require an active role by admins/managers/operators and thats where problems crop up.
