Synopsis: 2.6.32-042stab079.6 can now be patched using Ksplice

Systems running Virtuozzo 4.7 or the OpenVZ RHEL 6 kernel can now use
Ksplice to patch against the latest Parallels Virtuozzo Containers 4.7
kernel security update, 2.6.32-042stab079.6.

INSTALLING THE UPDATES

We recommend that all users of Ksplice Uptrack on Virtuozzo 4.7 or
OpenVZ on RHEL 6 install these updates.

On systems that have "autoinstall = yes" in /etc/uptrack/uptrack.conf,
these updates will be installed automatically and you do not need to
take any action.

Alternatively, you can install these updates by running:

# /usr/sbin/uptrack-upgrade -y


DESCRIPTION

* Invalid memory access in socket buffers.

Failure to properly initialize a field in the skbuff structure could
lead to an invalid memory access.  This could lead to a kernel crash.

SUPPORT

Ksplice support is available at ksplice-support_ww at oracle.com.
