What is the best approach on centos 6 to mitigate the problem is
officially patched? As far as I can tell Centos 6 is vulnerable to
attacks using ptrace.
There is a mitigation described here
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1384344#c13
which doesn't fix the underlying problem, but at least protects against
known attack vectors. However, I'm unsure if the script only applies to
Centos 7, or if it also works on Centos 6?
Cheers, Christian

Dear All,
I guess, we all have to urgently apply workaround, following, say,
this:
https://gryzli.info/2016/10/21/protect-cve-2016-5195-dirtycow-centos-7rhel7cpanelcloudlinux/
At least those of us who still have important multi user machines
running
Linux.
I should have said CentOS 7. Older ones (CentOS 6 and 5) are not
vulnerable.
Patch is out on RHEL side:
