Curious why Secunia is rating this as 'less critical'. The way I see it,
this exploit could be integrated into the other exploits for mambo,
joomla,
phpbb, etc. Also, all of us that have websites hosted on linux machines
that have a vulnerable kernel could get root?
I'm thinking 'highly critical'?

yes
