Linux Mailing List

["Kaminski Kai (PSI)" <Kai.Kaminski AT psi.ch>]

Summary
=======

The Scientific Linux team has released updates for SL 5 and SL 6.

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

- Kernel: privilege escalation
- Firefox: crash or code execution
- nss/nss-util: crash or code execution

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 till the end of this week I will push the updates 
to
the Stable repository on Monday.
