I've tried to modify an existing patch to apply it to the Replicant source code.

I've provided the .patch on the mailing list here:
http://lists.osuosl.org/pipermail/replicant/Week-of-Mon-20150112/000633.html
http://lists.osuosl.org/pipermail/replicant/Week-of-Mon-20150112/000634.html

I've recompiled Replicant 4.2 (with this patch successfully applied before).
After that I've checked that Replicant is not vulnerable anymore to this topic.
