Dear All,
I guess, we all have to urgently apply workaround, following, say, this:

At least those of us who still have important multi user machines running Linux. (Yes, me too, I do have a couple, thank goodness, the rest are already not ;-)
Have a productive weekend, everybody.

And to close the book on this CVE, I just pushed the CentOS-5.11 kernel to fix this issue as well:
kernel-2.6.18-416.el5
So, the only thing we still have to release is a fixed kernel for the aarch64 AltArch SIG. And we are building a test kernel for that right now.
ppc64le, ppc64, i686, arm32 for CentOS-7 .. and all released arches for CentOS-5 and CentOS-6 ... now all have updates released.
Thanks, Johnny Hughes
