Subject: [SECURITY] [DSA-358-4] New kernel packages fix potential "oops"
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------
Debian Security Advisory DSA 358-4 security@...ian.org
http://www.debian.org/security/ Matt Zimmerman
August 13th, 2003 http://www.debian.org/security/faq
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------
Package : linux-kernel-i386, linux-kernel-alpha
This advisory provides a correction to the previous kernel updates,
which contained an error introduced in kernel-source-2.4.18 version
2.4.18-10. This error could result in a kernel "oops" under certain
circumstances involving POSIX locks and multithreaded programs.
For the stable distribution (woody) on the i386 architecture, this
problem has been fixed in kernel-source-2.4.18 version 2.4.18-13,
kernel-image-2.4.18-i386bf version 2.4.18-5woody4, and
kernel-image-2.4.18-1-i386 version 2.4.18-11.
For the stable distribution (woody) on the alpha architecture, this
problem has been fixed in kernel-source-2.4.18 version 2.4.18-13 and
kernel-image-2.4.18-1-alpha version 2.4.18-10.
For the unstable distribution (sid) this problem has been fixed in
kernel-source-2.4.20 version 2.4.20-7.
We recommend that you update your kernel packages.
If you are using the kernel installed by the installation system when
the "bf24" option is selected (for a 2.4.x kernel), you should install
the kernel-image-2.4.18-bf2.4 package. If you installed a different
kernel-image package after installation, you should install the
corresponding 2.4.18-1 kernel. You may use the table below as a
guide.
| If "uname -r" shows: | Install this package:
- ------------------------------------------------------
| 2.4.18-bf2.4 | kernel-image-2.4.18-bf2.4
| 2.4.18-386 | kernel-image-2.4.18-1-386
| 2.4.18-586tsc | kernel-image-2.4.18-1-586tsc
| 2.4.18-686 | kernel-image-2.4.18-1-686
| 2.4.18-686-smp | kernel-image-2.4.18-1-686-smp
| 2.4.18-k6 | kernel-image-2.4.18-1-k6
| 2.4.18-k7 | kernel-image-2.4.18-1-k7
NOTE: that this kernel is binary compatible with the previous kernel
security updates, but not binary compatible with the corresponding
kernel included in Debian 3.0r1. If you have not already applied the
previous security update (kernel-image-2.4.18-bf2.4 version
2.4.18-5woody1 or any of the 2.4.18-1-* kernels), then any custom
modules will need to be rebuilt in order to work with the new kernel.
New PCMCIA modules are provided for all of the above kernels.
NOTE: A system reboot will be required immediately after the upgrade
in order to replace the running kernel. Remember to read carefully
and follow the instructions given during the kernel upgrade process.
Upgrade Instructions
- --------------------
wget url
will fetch the file for you
dpkg -i file.deb
will install the referenced file.
If you are using the apt-get package manager, use the line for
sources.list as given below:
apt-get update
will update the internal database
apt-get upgrade
will install corrected packages
You may use an automated update by adding the resources from the
footer to the proper configuration.
