What do you think of the new Novell support changes? I encourage you to leave your comments on this! I like it, brings Novell's support in line with other companies such as Cisco I do not like it Novell is blooming crazy, this is going to push customers, IT people, and consultants away from Novell even further! I do not care either way Results 49 votes \| 0 comments

TITLE:
SUSE update for kernel

SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:
SA38017

VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/38017/

DESCRIPTION:
SUSE has issued an update for the kernel. This fixes some security
issues and vulnerabilities, which can be exploited by malicious,
local users to manipulate certain data, cause a DoS (Denial of
Service), and potentially gain escalated privileges, and by malicious
people to cause a DoS.

For more information:
SA37086
SA37233
SA37357
SA37435
SA37590
SA37658

1) A vulnerability is caused due to an error within the "ip_defrag()"
function in net/ipv4/ip_fragment.c, which may be exploited to cause a
NULL pointer dereference by sending overly large packets to a
vulnerable system.

SOLUTION:
Apply updated packages.
