Hi Gentoo-users,

have you noticed the latest local priviledge escalation exploit?
http://packetstormsecurity.com/files/121616/semtex.c

Actually, it does not (?) work on my box even with PERF_EVENTS,
but when I compile & run it (as non-root user), my system is
instantly restarted. So it seems that gentoo-sources 3.7.10-r1
are at least partially affected. I hope to see fix soon!

Jarry
