[bdubbs at swbell.net: [SATLUG] New kernel security problem]

[akonstam at trinity.edu]

All current kernels have a newly discovered DOS security problem.

The bug is only available if a malicious user has shell access.  The 
result is a crashed system.

See http://reviewed.homelinux.org/news/2004-06-11_kernel_crash/index.html.en

Time to get the latest kernel and patch that!
