Kernel root hole CVE-2010-3081 for stable release

[cmouse]

For stable release, you can use this patch : http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/g ... h=c41d68a5. It should go in OK, but I noticed that arch/tile/include/asm/compat.h will not go cleanly, as won't include/linux/compat.h. The first one you can just download from the site, and for the second one, just go ahead and add the line yourself. This will close the hole for your 2.6.32.21 kernel. http://cmouse.desteem.org/linux-2.6.32.21-cve20103081.patch for those who want a patch. This should go cleanly.

Did you notice all the patches have already been included in grsec since the day the vulnerability was announced?
