That's the difference between relying on a opensource distro and a commercial
counterpart. In the latter case you've someone, who can be held liable, since
you (or your customer) paid for it. Unless you provide a fix, your customer
is absolutely right to blame you, but you're wrong, if you think you can
shift it upon someone else. Clamouring doesn't help, do a better job next
time. It is your economical risk.
