Synopsis: 4.4.0-43.63 can now be patched using Ksplice

Systems running Ubuntu 16.04 Xenial can now use Ksplice to patch
against the latest Ubuntu kernel update, 4.4.0-43.63.

INSTALLING THE UPDATES

We recommend that all users of Ksplice Uptrack on Ubuntu 16.04 Xenial
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

* Denial of service when balancing memory zones.

A logic error when balancing memory zones can trigger a infinite loop
and denial of service. A local unprivileged user could trigger this
issue by causing memory pressure.

SUPPORT

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