 Mandriva Linux Security Advisory                         MDVSA-2009:104
 http://www.mandriva.com/security/
 _______________________________________________________________________

 Package : udev
 Date    : April 30, 2009
 Affected: Corporate 4.0
 _______________________________________________________________________

 Problem Description:

 udev before 1.4.1 does not verify whether a NETLINK message originates
 from kernel space, which allows local users to gain privileges by
 sending a NETLINK message from user space (CVE-2009-1185).
 
 The updated packages have been patched to prevent this.
