Hi,

CVE-2009-2584 [0],[1] has been disclosed for quite a while now (with
existing exploit code by Brad Spengler [2]).  A patch has also been
available for the same amount of time [3], but as of 2.6.32-rc6 it is 
still not applied.  Did this slip through the cracks?  Thanks upfront
for any info on the matter.

Best wishes,
Mike
