You are safe from the KNOWN one.  I wouldnt expect they would just write one and quit, with the success they had with it.

Hey bready read this: https://lists.torproject.org/pipermail/tor-announce/2013-August/000089.html

It's an official security advisory from Tor and it sums up everything about the exploit and how to be safe(r)
