-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----

Mandrake Linux Security Update Advisory
_______________________________________________________________________
Package name: kernel
Advisory ID: MDKSA-2004:001
Date: January 7th, 2004
Affected versions: 9.0, 9.1, 9.2, Corporate Server 2.1,
Multi Network Firewall 8.2
______________________________________________________________________
Problem Description:
A flaw in bounds checking in mremap() in the Linux kernel versions
2.4.23 and previous was discovered by Paul Starzetz. This flaw may
be used to allow a local attacker to obtain root privilege.
Another minor information leak in the RTC (real time clock) routines
was fixed as well.
All Mandrake Linux users are encouraged to upgrade to these packages
immediately. To update your kernel, please follow the directions
located at:
http://www.mandrakesecure.net/en/kernelupdate.php
Mandrake Linux 9.1 and 9.2 users should upgrade the initscripts (9.1)
and bootloader-utils (9.2) packages prior to upgrading the kernel as
they contain a fixed installkernel script that fixes instances where
the loop module was not being loaded and would cause mkinitrd to fail.
Users requiring commercial NVIDIA drivers can find drivers for
Mandrake Linux 9.2 at MandrakeClub.
