Hi there, maybe most of you already know about the new kernel vulnerability in the mremap(2) system call. Can we get a timeline from SuSE when new patches for that will be out? RedHat pushed some fixes today (no, i'm not saying redhat is better.. just don't want to wait as long as for the last fixes, like most others i think). More infos about the vulnerability: http://isec.pl/vulnerabilities/isec-0013-mremap.txt Regards, Sven
We have prepared update kernels but are currently debugging an update problem discovered during QA (RPM running for >30 mins). Olaf On Mon, Jan 05, 2004 at 02:27:42PM +0100, Sven 'Darkman' Michels wrote:
