sigh, that was meant to be 'irrelevant'.
anyway the current bug to consider would be the CAP_SETUID bug in all
linux kernels < 2.2.16. So anybody with anything to protect from untrusted
users should be upgrading to 2.2.16. Heck there's no such thing as trusted
users anyway.
Anyone read the Bugtraq vulnerability totals compilation over the last few
years where Linux and Windows had the largest number of bugs? I know this
is old news too but wth.
BTW, any ilug-bomers going for the TFCI conference on Linux, Vishal Gupta
of Aryabhatta notoriety is speaking on "When to use Linux", right before
our man Prakash (Advani) too. Not a good position to be in for either,
I'd presume.
BTW the Hackers Hall of Flame section on the TFCI Hacker's conference site
is stolen from the famed Discovery <http://discovery.com/> Hacker's Hall
of Fame Site, _entirely_.
