  Not sure if related. Support ended, so it's a good recommendation whether some new attack is revealed or not. Especially when new patch for a newer version can reveal unpatched issues in older versions. What do you think is oddly-specific about it?

    Just the emphasis on banking in particular. "Don't use it" is good advice. The banking element struck me as potentially hinting at crypto in particular, though I agree they may have just chosen a particularly sensitive area as an example.
