Well ... even the recent example on this very list (a bug in script for 
applying patches being used by prominent maintainers) could be used by an 
attacker to open remote shell with repository access credentials on the 
local system of the maintainer. So I would be rather careful with stating 
that all this is just theoretical excercise.
