Two thoughts:
1. It shows that tests are only as good as the thinking that goes into them, i.e., it's up the programmer to think through all the use cases, possibility for breakage, and use the appropriate tools to try a wide range of inputs.
2. This lack of responsiveness to the vulnerability reminds me of the complaints Zed (Shaw) made about the Rails Core back when he announced he was leaving the Ruby community.
Preemptive disclaimer: These are not supposed to be snide remarks in any way, they're just two quick associations of a tired brain. So please no flames.
