Hey there
I have followed the discussion regarding the issue of fixing the
dirtyCow thing, but I just wanted to make sure that I get things right.
I have a server with wheezy and this is what I get for
> uname -a
3.2.0-4-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 3.2.73-2+deb7u2 x86_64 GNU/Linux
As far as I can see it, I will only get the appropriate kernel version
via backports.
These would be my sources.list
deb http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/ wheezy main
deb-src http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/ wheezy main
deb http://security.debian.org/ wheezy/updates main
deb-src http://security.debian.org/ wheezy/updates main
# wheezy-updates, previously known as 'volatile'
deb http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/ wheezy-updates main
deb-src http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/ wheezy-updates main
##############
What I need to do would be to add the backports:
deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian/ wheezy-backports main contrib non-free
deb-src http://ftp.debian.org/debian/ wheezy-backports main contrib non-free
|apt-get update|
|apt-cache search linux-image|
|apt-cache search linux-headers|
|apt-get install -t wheezy-backports linux-image-amd64 linux-headers-amd64|
|
followed by a reboot.|
|Would this fix it?|
|regards|
