Mandriva Linux Security Advisory MDVSA-2008:072
http://www.mandriva.com/security/
_______________________________________________________________________

Package : kernel
Date : March 20, 2008
Affected: Corporate 3.0, Multi Network Firewall 2.0
_______________________________________________________________________

Problem Description:

The Linux kernel prior to 2.6.22.17, when using certain drivers
that register a fault handler that does not perform range checks,
allowed local users to access kernel memory via an out-of-range offset
(CVE-2008-0007).

Additionally, this kernel fixes a JBD checkpoint memory leak bug.

To update your kernel, please follow the directions located at:
