Hello, We got an email at work about the following advisories about a denial of service vulnerability in the TCP implementation in kernel versions 4.9 and greater:
https://www.kb.cert.org/vuls/id/962459. There's a patch, called out in the above link, and the patch comments describe the issue and the current fix: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net.git/patch/?id=1a4f14bab1868b443f0dd3c55b689a478f82e72e If we're running kernel version 4.9 or greater on our beaglebone/beagleboard products, what do you recommend we do? Should we go ahead and apply the patch to every image we download from beagleboard.org with kernel 4.9 or greater if we're connecting our beagles on the internet and are concerned about the attack, or has the fix already be "rolled" into certain images?
