For instance, a new Security Advisory was released today regarding the shmat reference counting bug
One thing that I thought of when I was looking at this is the option to d/l the patch, then patch your system. I also noticed that there was, not only the patch you can download, but the .asc file which is supposed to verify the software you download.
So I wanted to know the methods available that you can use to verify software that you d/l?
How about .asc? I have seen that one before, but not really familiar with it.
I know you can also use md5 as well as gnupg.
Anyone care to take a moment and enlighten me with the steps to verify software?
I appreciate it.
Cheers,
Jason
