From RHN about the new kernel:
"The kernel in Red Hat Linux 7.1, 7.1K, 7.2, 7.3, and 8.0 are vulnerable to a local denial of service attack. Updated packages are available which address this vulnerability, as well as bugs in several drivers. Description: The Linux kernel handles the basic functions of the operating system. A vulnerability in the Linux kernel has been discovered in which a non-root user can cause the machine to freeze. This kernel addresses the vulnerability. Note: This bug is specific to the x86 architecture kernels only, and does not affect ia64 or other architectures. In addition, a bug in the maestro3 soundcard driver has been fixed as well as a bug in the xircom pcmcia driver network driver and the tg3 network driver for Broadcom gigabit ethernet chips." -- Joseph A Nagy Jr Purgatory is where Windows users go when they Founder and CEO die so they can figure out Linux and ascend into Joseph A Nagy Jr Enterprises whatever higher plane one belives in. http://jan-jr-ent.homelinux.org Linux - The Choice of Every Generation -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?subject=unsubscribe https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
