As far as I know there are no known exploits in the wild. So no need to panic just yet. Also, the KernelCare people still have not released a patch and they are usually on top of things. So it must be a complicated one that will take some time. OVZ has been pretty good at security updates so I am sure they will be coming out with a patched kernel soon enough.

That link someone posted further up indicates they are already testing a patched kernel. The fact it has not made it to OVZ kernel yet is not necessarily a bad thing. That means we will probably eventually get a more well tested kernel. There will probably be more kernel updates as changes are better tested. There is also a microcode update from Intel coming so that will be more testing and maybe another patch once that is out. So it's not a quick fix update the kernel and you are done thing.
