The kernel handles the basic functions of the operating system: memory allocation, process allocation, device input and output, etc. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: Merged stable kernel 2.6.20.12, 2.6.20.13, 2.6.20.14: http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/ChangeLog-2.6.20.12 http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/ChangeLog-2.6.20.13 http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/ChangeLog-2.6.20.14 Added the latest GFS2 updates from the maintainers. Utrace update. CVE-2007-2451: Unspecified vulnerability in drivers/crypto/geode-aes.c in GEODE-AES in the Linux kernel before 2.6.21.3 allows attackers to obtain sensitive information via unspecified vectors. CVE-2007-2875: Integer underflow in the cpuset_tasks_read function in the Linux kernel before 2.6.20.13, and 2.6.21.x before 2.6.21.4, when the cpuset filesystem is mounted, allows local users to obtain kernel memory contents by using a large offset when reading the /dev/cpuset/tasks file. CVE-2007-2876: Linux Kernel is prone to multiple weaknesses and vulnerabilities that can allow remote attackers to carry out various attacks, including denial-of-service attacks. CVE-2007-2453: The random number feature in Linux kernel 2.6 before 2.6.20.13, and 2.6.21.x before 2.6.21.4, (1) does not properly seed pools when there is no entropy, or (2) uses an incorrect cast when extracting entropy, which might cause the random number generator to provide the same values after reboots on systems without an entropy source. --------------------------------------------------------------------- * Tue Jun 19 2007 Chuck Ebbert <cebbert@xxxxxxxxxx> 1.2962 - utrace update * Tue Jun 19 2007 Chuck Ebbert <cebbert@xxxxxxxxxx> - enable sound system debugging in -debug kernels * Wed Jun 13 2007 Chuck Ebbert <cebbert@xxxxxxxxxx> 1.2960 - sysfs: fix check in dentry drop code - kcryptd: 3 patches from 2.6.22 (BZ #243809) - UDF: 2 fixes from 2.6.22 for Fedora backport of that code * Tue Jun 12 2007 Chuck Ebbert <cebbert@xxxxxxxxxx> 1.2959 - 2.6.20.14 - GFS2 update - utrace update * Fri Jun 8 2007 Chuck Ebbert <cebbert@xxxxxxxxxx> 1.2958 - 2.6.20.12 - 2.6.20.13 - 2.6.20.14-rc2 * Tue Jun 5 2007 Eduardo Habkost <ehabkost@xxxxxxxxxx> 1.2957 - Fix bug #235542: sbp2: set direction of s/g tables to DMA_TO_DEVICE * Tue Jun 5 2007 Dave Jones <davej@xxxxxxxxxx> - Allow kdump to read /proc/kcore.
