Subject: Linux 2.4.36.4
I've just released Linux 2.4.36.4.
This release fixes two local security issues discovered by
Al Viro who also provided these patches :
CVE-2008-1669: Fix SMP ordering hole in fcntl_setlk()
CVE-2008-1375: Fix dnotify/close race
Note that during the process, he noticed that an earlier fix
related to 1669 was already missing, so all users of 2.4 are
really encouraged to upgrade, or at least to apply those
patches to their own tree.
The patch and changelog will appear soon at the following locations:
ftp://ftp.all.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.4/
