Just ran it on my Nexus S with 4.1 and everything is patched. Currious to see how the HTC / Samsung's that are not Nexus devices fare.

Why haven't you published this to the Google Play store?

Grab the latest of JMZTaylor's unofficial CM9 nightlies! They are very stable and a huge upgrade from CM7 on my original Evo.

Ran it on Verizon Galaxy Nexus (4.0.4) and it appears everything is patched. Now if they would just get me Jellybean, I would be a really happy camper...

I'll check that out after work today. I was hoping I wouldn't have to ditch CM to get ICS

CM9 RC1 is supposed to be running 4.0.4, right? Shouldn't that have been patched already? Though it also appears they have some bigger issues, like everything you type going out to the debug logs, passwords included.

You should report this on their issue tracker: http://code.google.com/p/cyanogenmod/issues/list
