The issue isn't a big deal for the average user. The vulnerability required them to first get your username and password, physically steal your Yubikey, spend half a day using $10-15k worth of electronics equipment to repeatedly authenticate over and over, they then could potentially make a clone of the key.
Haha well I feel less concerned now
