New packages that correct a vulnerability in the kernels that shipped
with Red Hat Linux 6.0 are now available. When exploited this
vulnerability allows remote users to crash machines running 2.2.x
kernels. Thanks to Piotr Wilkin for reporting the problem and to Alan
Cox for the fix.
Red Hat Software recommends that all users with networked machines
upgrade to this release.
The procedure for upgrading the kernel is documented at
http://www.redhat.com/corp/support/docs/kernel-upgrade/kernel-upgrade.html
Please read the entire section for your architecture before upgrading.
