Systems running Fedora 22 can now use Ksplice to patch against the
latest Fedora kernel update, FEDORA-2015-912d8e4998.

INSTALLING THE UPDATES

We recommend that all users of Ksplice Uptrack on Fedora 22 install
these updates.

On systems that have "autoinstall = yes" in /etc/uptrack/uptrack.conf,

take any action.

Alternatively, you can install these updates by running:

# /usr/sbin/uptrack-upgrade -y


DESCRIPTION

* Multiple memory leaks in the netfilter sub-system on hash expiration.

Multiple flaws in the netfilter sub-system could potentially lead to memory
leaks on hash expiration.  This could potentially be used to exhaust the
memory on the system and cause a denial-of-service.


* NULL pointer dereference when using IPSec over IPv6.

A flaw in the IPv6 routing cache could lead to a NULL pointer dereference
when using IPSec.  A local user could use this flaw to cause a
denial-of-service.
