Warning: the Linux kernel has a well known serious leak, you should shut all your servers down for the next few weeks. Sorry, I couln't resist! ;-))) This is not an easy decision: the alert may alert bad guys too... "Oh! There is some kind vulnerability nobody knows and has corrected in SSH! Let's look for it and use it quick before anybody has been able to patch it!" But this was not the main point of my first mail: I only ask for putting some information about the delay in the announcement. It will just be usefull (and alertless) for these people (like me) checking for the kernel compile time against the announcement date. Regards, -- J.C.
