Subject: Linux 2.4.35.3
Date: Sun, 23 Sep 2007 22:20:41 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20070923222041.GA26070@hera.kernel.org> (raw)


I've just released Linux 2.4.35.3.

This version fixes CVE-2007-4573 which may lead to local privilege escalation
on x86_64.

It also fixes another problem reported by Gilles Espinasse: If the ATM module
is loaded with CLIP support but the CLIP module is not loaded yet, any user
reading /proc/net/atm/arp would cause a kernel panic to occur. 

Both x86_64 and ATM users are encouraged to upgrade. Note that USB DSL modems
often use ATM.

The patch and changelog will appear soon at the following locations:
