And how does it apply to open source software if commercial activity is done with it. You install a PBX at a customer site? You install LibreOffice at a government site? The way I read this it's the first person that uses this for a commercial application that becomes liable.

That has squat all to do with a 'high school kid or collage student' or CERN, which was the concern of the comment I replied to. If you install a PBX which is two years out of date and has a high-severity, easily-triggered security hole which has since been patched, who is responsible? Who should be responsible?

  The manager who explicitly demanded you install that version because that's what their nephew said was the best version?

    By my reading, that means you are not a manufacturer of the software so are not covered under this directive.
