Hi Everyone, RedHat has a patched kernel for testing the fix on RHEL6. This is purely for testing. I don't have any RHEL6 boxes lying around to test this, and I don't have the time to set one up. If you would like to test the packages on RHEL6, please contact me off-list, and I'll give you a download link. I can also report your success or failure to RedHat as part of my support ticket. These packages are only for testing and should NOT be used on any critical or production system.
No fix is available for RHEL5 at this time.
