[Bug 263555] Re: [intrepid] 2.6.27 e1000e driver places Intel ICH8 and ICH9 gigE chipsets at risk

Daniel, to be honest, no one can really protect anyone of bugs until
they know about the bugs to protect people against. This is the first
time in a long time (perhaps ever) that this sort of report has been
confirmed.

They've done the best they can to protect people by educating everyone
on the mailing lists the _day_ the report comes in, and sending out an
update that disables the driver. What more can they do?
