I think the debian patch had been applied in releases after Hardy. But the daemon only resets the oom_adj value that it was originally called with. So in Jaunty a DHCP restart script which had the oob_adj value of -17 itself caused the same effect. See bug report #390556.
I have not checked lucid yet. But the issue itself caused me a lot of headaches and it would have been nice if it would have been fixed back in 2008 in a Ubuntu version which is labeled "LTS". -- hardy: openssh-server oom_adj can lead to denial of service https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/293000 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to openssh in ubuntu. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list [email protected] Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
