Some warnings about these: 1. They leave CVE-2011-0536 (http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2011-0536) unpatched. 2. These need to be manually downloaded and installed: http://people.centos.org/hughesjr/c5.glibc-2.5-58.el5_6.2/ You can see which packages you need with command: rpm -qa | grep 2.5-58.el5_6.2 | sort 3. These packages are signed with the CentOS Testing repo key: http://dev.centos.org/centos/RPM-GPG-KEY-CentOS-testing ===================== Do not use this unless you have the problem BECAUSE they roll back a patch for a known escalation vulerability (which is why they are not easy to install). You would install by downloading the RPMs you found that you need via set 2 above and use this command to install: rpm -Uvh <package1> <package2> ==================== If you have already installed the Scientific Linux packages by Troy Dawson then you do not need to install these packages as the libraries are the same.
