I just noticed gentoo linux security site - |
| 2 |
- www.gentoo.org/security/en/ |
| 3 |
which mentions some very recent vulnerability |
| 4 |

| 5 |
That means i can play with these new gentoo |
| 6 |
packages for vulnerability and exploit analysis. |

Nikos - please correct me if you think i am going |
| 8 |
wrong. |
