Trustix Secure Linux Bugfix Advisory #2005-0073
Package names: kernel, perl
Summary: Various bug fixes
Date: 2005-12-23
Affected versions: Trustix Secure Linux 3.0
Trustix Secure Linux 2.2
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------
Package description:
kernel
The kernel package contains the Linux kernel (vmlinuz), the core of your
Trustix Secure Linux operating system. The kernel handles the basic
functions of the operating system: memory allocation, process allocation,
device input and output, etc.
perl
Perl is a high-level programming language with roots in C, sed, awk
and shell scripting. Perl is good at handling processes and files,
and is especially good at handling text. Perl's hallmarks are
practicality and efficiency. While it is used to do a lot of
different things, Perl's most common applications (and what it excels
at) are probably system administration utilities and web programming.
A large proportion of the CGI scripts on the web are written in Perl.
Problem description:
