Synopsis: FEDORA-2013-17865 can now be patched using Ksplice

Systems running Fedora 19 can now use Ksplice to patch against the
latest Fedora kernel update, FEDORA-2013-17865.

INSTALLING THE UPDATES

We recommend that all users of Ksplice Uptrack on Fedora 19 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

* Off-by-one error causes reduced entropy in kernel PRNG.

An off-by-one error can cause the default kernel pseudorandom number generator
to return duplicate bytes when filling multiple buffers in quick succession.

SUPPORT

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