My password isn't in the file, and yes I checked for a 0'd version as well. My password is 9 characters of lower case, upper case, numbers, and a symbol. I'm wondering if this is incomplete, or fake. Either way...if it is a vulnerability I suppose LinkedIn hasn't fixed it yet, or at least I haven't heard mention of this - thus even changing your password won't help much if they can just re-download the database. Thus making a long, complex password is the best course of action.
