 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:
