According to Andree Toonk (and someone confirmed privately) ASN 8997 leaked a full table to ASN 3267 (who didn't filter!).  The only upstream of ASN 3267 I saw in bgplay was ASN 174 (Cogent) who seems to have filtered, but I can't confirm.  So I guess that the impact would've only been to the peers downstream of ASN 3267.
