Does ASL provide protection against the vulnerability described in CVE-2015-0235?

Although it is said that the CentOS patch is being pushed to mirrors as I type, some servers still cant get the fix.

Yes, if you are using the ASL kernel this does not affect your platform.

More info on this issue, it is especially serious if you are using the exim MTA (without the ASL kernel, with the ASL kernel you're still safe).
