 Mandriva Linux Security Advisory                         MDVSA-2008:043
 http://www.mandriva.com/security/
 _______________________________________________________________________
 
 Package : kernel
 Date    : February 11, 2008
 Affected: 2007.0, 2007.1
 _______________________________________________________________________
 
 Problem Description:
 
 A flaw in the vmsplice system call did not properly verify address
 arguments passed by user-space processes, which allowed local attackers
 to overwrite arbitrary kernel memory and gain root privileges.
 
 Mandriva urges all users to upgrade to these new kernels immediately
 as this flaw is being actively exploited.  This issue only affects
 2.6.17 and newer Linux kernels, so neither Corporate 3.0 nor Corporate
 4.0 are affected.
 
 To update your kernel, please follow the directions located at:
 
   http://www.mandriva.com/en/security/kernelupdate
