I think this one whilst bad is largely dealt with in the browser space.
By the time I heard about it my browser knew to ignore these
certificates.
Mostly a problem with things using fixed CA lists, so things out of
maintenance or not getting security updates, or old containers. But I
think this is not that distinct from general issue of not updating.
On subject of which server with the DCGLUG site is long overdue an
update.
