[Oracle Ksplice]

Synopsis: FEDORA-2017-e8390ff6c3 can now be patched using Ksplice

Systems running Fedora 26 can now use Ksplice to patch against the
latest Fedora kernel update, FEDORA-2017-e8390ff6c3.

INSTALLING THE UPDATES

We recommend that all users of Ksplice Uptrack running Fedora 26
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

* Race condition when accessing Page Middle Directory.

A logic error when accessing Page Middle Directory of a virtual memory
mapping could lead to a race condition. A local attacker could use this
flaw to cause a denial-of-service.
