Hey There,

A few thoughts:

1. An attack doesn't have to be huge to be devastating; also, you need 
to define 'huge'.

2. Who says there hasn't been a huge attack, and you/we just haven't 
seen or heard of it?

3. This hole will be exploitable for the months upon months. Anyone who 
was sensible, with an exploit vector this schweet, should be smart 
enough to take their time and slowly own a pile of boxes. Maybe they 
just don't want to blow a good thing? :)

Cheers,
Byron
