It's a local vulnerability at least. How many people do you let log in to your router?

With the way linux is used these days, I'd guess the number of systems with untrusted local users is pretty limited. Even with shared hosting, you generally have root in your VM or container anyway. Unless this enables an escape from that?

Still the risk that people who run "curl | bash" without care could get bitten, but usually its "curl | sudo bash" anyway...
