[tlug] Linux Kernel Exploit News

[CL <az.4tlug@example.com>]

I am not sure I understand the issue 100% but thought others might be 
interested. this morning's ZDNet news contained the following article:

http://www.zdnet.co.uk/news/security-threats/2010/09/21/linux-kernel-exploit-roots-64-bit-machines-40090177/?s_cid=116

Which links to an explanatory story and onward links to a hotfix patch:

I have not applied the patch as it appears to be an enterprise problem 
more than an individual PC one.  Maybe people who know more could comment.
