This is just like the old, and equally bogus, "advice" for preventing being hit by mass mailing viruses -- "don't open attachments from people you don't know". The implication taken from such advice is that attachments from people you do know are necessarily "safe". Better advice is to implement a method that prevents receipt of such requests (or upgrade to the version thought unaffected by the bug). -- Nick FitzGerald Computer Virus Consulting Ltd.
