No, that problem is in versions *before* 2.4.20.

See for example

http://www.sfu.ca/~siegert/linux-security/msg00154.html

There is a serious filesystem bug in 2.4.20 but it only affects ext3
filesystems and there is a very easy patch to fix it in the message
above.  In any case I'd recommend using a more stable filesystem such
as ext2 until things settle down.
