Subject: kernel vulnerablity
Date: Wed, 13 Feb 2008 09:22:34 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <00f101c86e54$42039b60$4ba65c90@vv507j> (raw)
So i have all these machines with speakup kernels on them downloaded from
Shane's space on debian.org. Some code has been published recently that
alows a user to become root. I have compiled this code and it does work. But
I'm unclear on how to fix it. here is the debian page that is supposed to
explain what to do. But I don't get what it's telling me to do:
