Just wondering if the patch is in Feisty or 6.XX at all?

Not sure if this was the specific issue, but a madwifi security fix was released earlier this year for 6.10. If issues affect older releases the fixes are added to their kernels too.

I found this through the security announcements part of the these forums.
