Its amazing what turns up when you read the Mandrake SECURITY UPDATES page.
7.2 is safe from the worm, but 7.1 is vulerable. 7.1 and earlier need to
stop by
http://www.linux-mandrake.com/en/security/
and fix thier crap.

Since Mandrake is Redhat based, I would assume that we ARE vulnerable to
the same attack, until and unless Mandrake publicly says otherwise.
Hopefully Mandrake will announce something, one way or the other, soon.
