Horms and I discussed this and decided it was *not* a reasonable
security problem as it requires you to be at the machine rebooting it,
which means you've got root already

According to the 2.6.8-16sarge1 changelog:
Excluded from security-only release
* net-bridge-mangle-oops-1.dpatch, net-bridge-mangle-oops-2.dpatch
Fix oops when mangling and brouting and tcpdumping packets
Needed for net-bridge-forwarding-poison-1.dpatch
This meant to me that this is not a security patch and I was not
tracking this, has this changed?

Yes, CAN-2005-3110 fixed in 2.6.8-16sarge1

This one is not in any changelog or in any of my notes, however it is in
svn:
./releases/kernel/source/kernel-source-2.6.8-2.6.8/2.6.8-16sarge1/debian/patches/net-netlink-autobind-return.dpatch
./dists/sarge/kernel/source/kernel-source-2.6.8-2.6.8/debian/patches/net-netlink-autobind-return.dpatch
./dists/sarge-security/kernel/source/kernel-source-2.6.8-2.6.8/debian/patches/net-netlink-autobind-return.dpatch
I do see in 2.6.8-16sarge1 the following patch that is similar, but I
dont think its the same:
* asm-i386-mem-clobber.dpatch:
Make sure netlink_autobind() propagates the error return from
netlink_insert(). Otherwise, callers will not see the error as they
should and thus try to operate on a socket with a zero pid, which is
very bad.
I wanted to get a CVE for this, but wasn't certain if it was a security
problem?

Thats it...
