Did I miss the memo?

It’s (very) briefly mentioned in this post by Dave Aitel, third
paragraph, second sentence…

I do not know what he is talking about.
The current vulnerabilities are listed here:
http://nginx.org/en/security_advisories.html
and there are no remote exploits among them.

I believe he is referring to old exploits (hence the title mentioning
“dinosaurs”). The posting is specifically referring to stuff people
never got around to and he says “works even when you don’t expect it to”
about the Nginx exploit.

My feeling is that if you are running an up-to-date version of Nginx
then whatever exploit he is referring to will not affect you.
