    I hope the come up with a fix, but I have another concern with this.  Assuming they are correct and this is indeed a 'false positive', according to my Enterprise Console, the existing 'flawed' update will require a restart of the servers to take effect.  If they fix the problems with this update, will we have to do an additional restart of servers to complete that as well?  In any case, I now have to schedule 1, or possibly 2, reboots of all my production servers, since I'm now seeing this 'false positive' on 100% of the machines in the environment.
