Very often what you get is neophytes passing on junk warnings that have been wandering around the net for ages. Serious warnings are posted in standard security areas that are known to those who need to be concerned with such matters. If you DO need to be concerned, and do NOT know how to find out about these kind of security problems, then you can't in any case rely on such posts as a reliable protection mechanism, most especially because when you see such a repost, you have no way to know if it is real or not.
