Clarity on Copy Fail

Hi everyone,

I was taken aback by an email that was sent to me by a friend in the US. I had helped them remotely with another distribution in the past and they were worried about an article that appeared in Arstechnica about the Copy Fail vulnerability.

I read the article, and from what I could gather this is not an issue for home users but for sysadmins of servers and users who don't have root privileges on such systems.

Have I interpreted this correctly?

Many thanks.
