There's probably plenty of local privilege escalations, but those are not really anything worry about for a single-user machine. That one you pointed to is an RCE, so definitely more severe. I wonder how easy it is to exploit those. I suspect the community is eventually going to fix them somehow (especially since the 2k source was leaked a long time ago) if it's enough of a concern.
