<PRE>Hi,

Since it probably will take some time before Mandriva releases their 
next kernel security updates, I suggest to install the ones I have built 
from current svn:


So for 2010.1 hosts:
&gt;<i> * Fri Dec 10 2010 Thomas Backlund &lt;<A HREF="https://www.mageia.org/mailman/listinfo/mageia-sysadm">tmb at mandriva.org</A>&gt; 2.6.33.7-2.2mnb
</I>&gt;<i> o Thomas Backlund &lt;<A HREF="https://www.mageia.org/mailman/listinfo/mageia-sysadm">tmb at mandriva.org</A>&gt;
</I>&gt;<i>     - vmscan: raise the bar to PAGEOUT_IO_SYNC stalls
</I>&gt;<i>       (Fixes &quot;system goes unresponsive under memory pressure and lots of
</I>&gt;<i>        dirty/writeback pages&quot; bug. (<A HREF="http://lkml.org/lkml/2010/4/4/86">http://lkml.org/lkml/2010/4/4/86</A>))
</I>&gt;<i>     - make kernel-source require diffutils as it uses both diff and cmp
</I>&gt;<i>       during build (mdv #61719)
</I>&gt;<i>     - econet: disallow NULL remote addr for sendmsg() (CVE-2010-3849)
</I>&gt;<i>     - econet: Add missing check for capable(CAP_NET_ADMIN) in SIOCSIFADDR
</I>&gt;<i>               operation (CVE-2010-3850)
</I>&gt;<i>     - econet: fix stack overflow if msg-&gt;msgiovlen is large (CVE-2010-3848)
</I>&gt;<i>     - do_exit(): make sure that we run with get_fs() == USER_DS (CVE-2010-4258)
</I>&gt;<i>     - af_unix: limit unix_tot_inflight and recursion level (CVE-2010-4249)(fixes unix socket OOM)
</I>
<A HREF="http://tmb.mine.nu/Mandriva/2010.1/">http://tmb.mine.nu/Mandriva/2010.1/</A>
<A HREF="http://tmb2.mine.nu/Mandriva/2010.1/">http://tmb2.mine.nu/Mandriva/2010.1/</A>


And for 2010.0 hosts:
&gt;<i> * Sat Dec 11 2010 Thomas Backlund &lt;<A HREF="https://www.mageia.org/mailman/listinfo/mageia-sysadm">tmb at mandriva.org</A>&gt; 2.6.31.14-1.1mnb
</I>&gt;<i> o Thomas Backlund &lt;<A HREF="https://www.mageia.org/mailman/listinfo/mageia-sysadm">tmb at mandriva.org</A>&gt;
</I>&gt;<i>     - fix local root exploit with 32bit compat mode on 64 bit kernels
</I>&gt;<i>       (CVE-2010-3301)
</I>&gt;<i>     - econet: fix stack overflow if msg-&gt;msgiovlen is large (CVE-2010-3848)
</I>&gt;<i>     - econet: disallow NULL remote addr for sendmsg() (CVE-2010-3849)
</I>&gt;<i>     - econet: Add missing check for capable(CAP_NET_ADMIN) in SIOCSIFADDR
</I>&gt;<i>               operation (CVE-2010-3850)
</I>&gt;<i>     - do_exit(): make sure that we run with get_fs() == USER_DS (CVE-2010-4258)
</I>&gt;<i>     - af_unix: limit unix_tot_inflight and recursion level (CVE-2010-4249)
</I>

Any complaints / suggestions ?
