Out of curiosity, have you (or any one else for that matter) come up
with a relevant exploit in Tails? I suppose I'm talking mostly about
actively supported (client-oriented) use cases -- it's obvious that any
one running a custom setup with a hidden service sshd with AcceptEnv,
for instance, is affected.

By the way, this will be fixed in the Tails 1.1.2 emergency release [1],
scheduled to be released later today (Thursday, CEST).

Cheers!
