Does this article imply that we should block IP 0.0.0.0?

I read that browsers are susceptible to an old vulnerability that accesses IP address 0.0.0.0

I've read that Chromium (and therefore Chrome, Edge, etc.) is currently being patched to remove this vulnerability.

But, it made me wonder: Should we, as a matter of course, block 0.0.0.0? (This is for a standard desktop user.)

sudo ufw deny from 0.0.0.0 to any

Thanks, @currentshaft. I didn't fully understand the problem, obviously.

I use Chrome, and they're busy fixing the vulnerability, so I'll wait for them to do the job.

I'll mark this thread as solved.
