1 | There was discussion on /. today about there being a potential bug which |
2 | allows users to obtain root privileges. Apparently its been fixed in BSD |
3 | but may still be a problem in RedHat distributions. It is supposed to be |
4 | fixed in the kernel but only as of 2.6.32. |
5 | |
6 | Is the fix being back-ported to 2.6.31 or should people plan/attempt to run |
7 | the kernel directly from kernel.org sources before they make it into the |
8 | Gentoo releases? |
