Summary
=======

The Scientific Linux team has released numerous updates for both SL 6. There
are
similar updates for SL 5, which I will make available in a few days.

The updates include, but are not limited to, the following critical security
fixes:

- Kernel: local privilege escalation
- Flash: crash/potential code execution
- OpenSSL: crash/potential code execution
- Thunderbird: crash/potential code execution
- Firefox: crash/potential code execution
- Java: sandbox restriction bypass

Further information can be found at https://lwn.net/Alerts/Scientific_Linux/
and
https://lwn.net/Security/.

As usual, other distributions are affected by many of the same problems.
Please
update system not running Scientific Linux as well.


Schedule
========

The updates are available in the Unstable and Testing repositories now. Please
test them and let me know if you run into any issues.

If no problems are reported this week, I will push the updates to the Stable
repository next Monday.
