The issue has been there for a while. See the associated bug report. Also since it is an issue with the interactive port, the attacker would have to have access to that port. In most cases the port should have been protected by either the trusted_hosts configuration or the fact that gmetad should be running behind a firewall which would prevent external access. Since only the web front end (ie. apache) and/or a downstream gmetad need access to the interactive port, there should really be no reason for this port to be exposed to anything else both inside or outside a firewall.
