Parent article: Linux also affected by hole in Ralink's Wi-fi driver (heise online)

I use the rt73usb driver that is in the Linux kernel tree (in directory drivers/net/wireless/rt2x00).

This is a "modified legacy" driver from the SerialMonkey project.

Is this driver affected by this security flaw? If so, can someone point me to a patch for this driver? I am comfortable compiling my own kernels, but I didn't see a pointer as to where the patches are.
