I received a security bulletin from IBM yesterday regarding "Tivoli Storage 
Manager Stack-based Buffer Overflow Elevation of Privilege: CVE-2014-6184". The 
affected version/release combinations listed in the bulletin run from 5.4 to 
6.3. We still have one Linux system with 5.3 client code. Can I treat the list 
of affected releases as an explicit assurance that the 5.3 client does not have 
the vulnerability discussed in the bulletin? The alternative possibility that 
worries me is that 5.4 is the oldest level IBM thought it worthwhile to check.
