Subject: Linux 2.6.32.65
I've just released Linux 2.6.32.65.
This version addresses the following list of security issues :
CVE-2013-2147 (was incorrectly fixed in 2.6.32.61), CVE-2014-3184,
CVE-2014-3185, CVE-2014-3687, CVE-2014-3688, CVE-2014-4653,
CVE-2014-4654, CVE-2014-4655, CVE-2014-4943, CVE-2014-6410,
CVE-2014-7841, CVE-2014-8709, CVE-2014-8884, CVE-2014-9090
and fixes various other bugs (see details below).
Special note: this version backports a new config entry CONFIG_X86_16BIT
which defaults to Y (compatibility mode). It makes it possible to disable
support for 16-bit applications (eg: dosemu/wine). Supporting such
applications requires a workaround known as "ESPFIX" for a processor bug,
which has been responsible for some of the last security issues affecting
2.6.32. Since the vast majority of users of 2.6.32 run it on servers
where 16-bit support is totally pointless, it is strongly recommended to
disable this option to stay safe and avoid upgrading again, should any
other bug in this area be discovered in the future.
The patch and changelog will appear soon at the following locations:
