At least they're honest about it with this CVE...

Issues like this, in obsolete code, are a lot of fun. Even if they are essentially meaningless.

I reported CVE-2014-3423 back in the day, relating to GNU Emacs using a predictable filename when talking to the Mosiac browser. No choice, as that was what the browser required, something that wouldn't exist these days.

I'm not so sure. Some banks and airlines might still be running those machines.
