Unannounced kernel update today? (etch)
My systems informed me of a kernel update today, but I can't find any indication either on the security web site or the security-announce list that there has been one recently. The changelog for the package says: linux-2.6 (2.6.18.dfsg.1-22etch2) stable-security; urgency=high * bugfix/x86-wrong-register-was-used-in-align-macro.patch Fix regression introduced upstream by the fix for CVE-2008-0598 * bugfix/cifs-fix-compiler-warning.patch, bugfix/netfilter-nf_nat_snmp_basic-fix-range-check.patch Fix regressions introduced upstream by the fixes for CVE-2008-1673 * bugfix/sound-ensure-device-number-is-valid-in-snd_seq_oss_synth_make_info.patch Fix possible information leak in seq_oss_synth.c See CVE-2008-3272 * bugfix/vfs-fix-lookup-on-deleted-directory.patch Fix potential memory leak in lookup path See CVE-2008-3275 -- dann frazier [EMAIL PROTECTED] Mon, 18 Aug 2008 01:43:55 -0600 The last security kernel I see announced is from June 9th.

I checked the archives but for some reason didn't see it(I think I was doing a top-down search rather than bottom up) nate -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.
