I notice that SLES 8 is not listed as vulnerable to the do_mremap() vulnerability, and that there's no update. Does this mean that the kernel which came with SP3 in early November was already patched with this?
An update for SLES8 should be available through the maintenance web.
It also apears that SLES8 is affected by what ever bug is on SuSE 8.1 ( I have seen this happen with SP3 recently ) and hence no kernel-source.rpm. Are there any plans on getting this bug fixed and a kernel-source.rpm? I do not consider a tar file a very clean fix as rpm will no longer reflect what is on the box. Neither is it exactly easy to deploy tar files via auto yast and across a LOT of systems. Best regards Hubba
