This story reeks of FUD.

exploiting more than 20,000 common misconfigurations, a capability that may make millions of machines connected to the Internet potential targets,

Because a “common misconfiguration” will absolutely make your system vulnerable!?!
OK show just ONE!

This is FUD to either prevent people from using Linux, or simply a hoax to get attention, or maybe to make you think you need additional security software.

Wouldn’t that simply be a user mistake?
It’s kind of like saying if you remove the password completely, it’s vulnerable.
