I read on this week's LWN.net security page: "This problem may have
been known since 2004; NVidia acknowledged it back in July, but it
remains unfixed.  It has been reported that the beta versions of the
drivers do contain the fix."

Even giving NVidia the benefit of the doubt, they've known about it
for at least three months.
