Hello,
I'm building a new firewall at the moment and currently my kernel is:
2.4.18-5woody5
Is this likely susceptible to do_brk() ?
I'm looking at upgrading to 2.6 stable but I've only ever done this
using Sid.
Now I am hesitant to upgrade the firewall to sid as there has been no
updates since the Debian break-in. So I worry that at the same time
there they have been missing important security updates.
So what is the best path?
thanks,
Chris
