That's not going to help if I actually want to do something with sudo. :) It'll have to open a terminal first though.
Anyway, let's just sit back and see 1) what percentage of Macs get infected and what degree of harm is done, and 2) see how long it takes for a fix. With the critical IE bug released today it would be nice to see the race.
Don't blink - you might miss it.
In any case, this little bug takes care of the first half of breaking your system - surreptitiously running my code on your box. From there, I can try to social-engineer my way into rooting everything, or I can try to exploit other holes into rooting everything. Or I can not bother and just wipe out everything in your home directory, which, as someone else pointed out above, is where you keep everything valuable to you anyway. The guy who gets his dissertation erased the week before he was set to hand it in is likely not going to be comforted by the fact that his box wasn't rooted. :^)
