The security team has apparently decided to release the security advisory before the arm kernel was built. Which I think is a reasonable compromise, considering that usually ARM is not used as multiuser systems, and there is x86/amd64 exploit in wild so there this bug needed fast action. A updated arm kernel should be available soon. -- "rm -rf" only sounds scary if you don't have backups
