Uhoh. I tend to use 4-letter words, but this would be highly inappropriate. If it's true, can someone from the official security / kernel team post an official statement on this issue, please? It was scared, when I saw a CAN Id from 1999 in 2004 when a squid bug was fixed, but this quite serious. But anyway, it's not my point to critize the work of the teams. I don't know how to fix it, I don't the reasons for not fixing it already. @who-ever-is-in-charge-with this. Please state your reasons and give a view on comming DSAs. > I believe someone posted here a few months ago asking about the bug, and > was told that updates were being prepared--but that has not yet happened. > :( Release Sarge! - and I will switch to testing using the freebsd kernel. Hopefully, things are not that mad then :ÂÂÂÂ-( keep smiling yanosz
