DSA-336-1 linux-kernel-2.2.20 Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment A number of vulnerabilities have been discovered in the Linux kernel. This advisory provides updated 2.2.20 kernel source, and binary kernel images for the i386 architecture. Other architectures and kernel versions will be covered by separate advisories. For the stable distribution (woody) on the i386 architecture, these problems have been fixed in kernel-source-2.2.20 version 2.2.20-5woody2 and kernel-image-i386 version 2.2.20-5woody3. For the unstable distribution (sid) these problems are fixed in kernel-source-2.2.25 and kernel-image-2.2.25-i386 version 2.2.25-2. We recommend that you update your kernel packages. NOTE: A system reboot will be required immediately after the upgrade in order to replace the running kernel. Remember to read carefully and follow the instructions given during the kernel upgrade process. NOTE: These kernels are not binary-compatible with the previous version. Any loadable modules will need to be recompiled in order to work with the new kernel.
