Hi,
In SuSE Security Announcement: kernel (SuSE-SA:2003:034) there is a list of fixes for the 2.4 kernel. Unfortunately, the descriptions of the different problems are very short and no CVE or Cert references are added :-/
I'm wondering whether the following two problems are security related, or actually just bugs:
-fix problem with ecc reporting garbage in /proc/ram -fix console redirect bug
Does anyone have any idea of what is actually the problem and what the security impact would be?
Both of them are only very loosely security-related. They have been
mentioned in the description for completeness and for some people who have
asked us to fix these bugs. This way they can easily see that the issues
have been addressed.
Thanks,
Roman.
