I contacted the author of the column and he was kind enough to reply.  He
first saw it on a security consulting gig in which the client (a big one)
had their phone system taken out by Nimda, then at a "multi-national law
firm", which had been hit hard by Code Red.  He's contacting others
consultants and vendors to find out what which are implementing this.  It
may pop up in a future column.

my quick read is the concern that Unity and Call Manager run on the Windows
NT platform only. Whether those are stand alone servers or blades in various
convergence boxes.

so yes, there is reason to be concerned.
