It is interesting to note that, according to talk on /. the problem is
only in 10.3 - 10.2 seems to be 'immune' so this was caused by a recent
braindread action on the part of an Apple developer rather than an old
one you could blame on 'didn't know better' ... Of course, Apple
removing the 'Helpers' preference pane in 10.3 didn't really help
either, nor does the use of CM coding for the preference file holding
all the settings :(

Actually, I asked someone I know who is still running 10.2.8 to try this, and according to what he told me, the vulnerability seemed to affect his machine. So apparently it does affect 10.2.8 as well.

(BTW, sorry for the previous duplicate message. I thought the first one didn't get sent. Whoops...)
