Hello,
I am using CentOS 5.5

I planned to update the kernel rpm because of vulnerabilities came out 
lately.

The new redhat updated kernel would be 2.6.18-238.5.1.el5

Also Scientific Linux did and update to the kernels according to redhat 
advisories

but I have seen that CentOS is still bound to  kernel 2.6.18-194.32.1.el5

so no security update is available.

I was wondering if  this is normal or not.

thank you

Riccardo
