Kernel 3 Is weak for Dec Alpha Linux

Something new is not always better than the previous one, but usually something new
is an improvement over the old. that's happened in the linux system.
Every new kernel comes out that is the kernel adds from existing
shortcomings from the previous kernel. still fresh in our memory,
a few weeks ago, the numbering of the Linux kernel has officially become 3,
and linuz Torvald himself explained there is nothing special from the kernel with this third series,
only about numbering. On security side, kernel 3 still left the weak side for DEC Alpha Linux,
where a regular user can gain root access to run code that has been created and has been deployed in some of the hacker community. That code can run for DEC Alpha Linux <= 3.0 local root exploit.
code you can find here http://1337day.com/exploits/16313. And I hope who has interest to develop linux system can help this problem, how to solve it.
