I'll work on testing it today and if it works, we will release a new 2.6.11.y release with this fix in it. thanks, greg k-h Subject: possibly fix Linux kernel ELF core dump privilege elevation As noted by Paul Starzetz references CAN-something-I-need-to-go-look-up...
CAN-2005-1263 is the correct one. Sorry for being lazy and not looking it up right away. thanks, greg k-h
