Is the Ubuntu fix is complete?

The Register (as of AM 2014-09-26 if I read and recall correctly) suggested it's incomplete and only addresses the primary bug, not the entire problem.

    "...fix is complete?"

    It seems so but 'm not really shure :-( Need to read more about this crap. Here is what i just did:

    Update: FYI: Yesterday evening i tried this fix on Mac OS X Lion. Didn't work.
