I presume this addresses CVE-2016-0728?
Actually it does not .. they have not rolled that patch into the LTS 3.18 branch at kernel.org yet.
As soon as it hits the LTS tree I will build a new kernel though.
OK .. supposedly, this patch fixes the issue:
I have made this patch apply to the xen kernel sources:
Let's verify that what I am applying is the only real meat to the first patch.
I will build and test this locally to verify that we have the issue before and not after applying that patch.
Then we can test it as a group.
SO .. hold off on testing kernel-3.18.25-17 and I will create a kernel-3.18.25-18 if this fixes the CVE-2016-0728 issue.
Thanks, Johnny Hughes
