Of course. This attack requires the attacker to have admin privileges or physical access to your computer. But if such an attacker exists, your computer is already insecure, as he can do anything with it. He has full control over it and you must stop using it.

Nothing new has been discovered.
Under the standard security model, this attack is bogus and the report misleading.
