It sounds like it affects anyone using GPSD server/client modules,
regardless of distribution.

As to whether the distribution has decided to update current / all
supported / unsupported versions; (or if server admins/people do the
updates if they are available).... I don't know that there is any list.

And of course it will affect any system that blindly updates their time
from an affected system, even if that system doesn't use GPSD.
