I don't think that Jens has solved this, he made a local workaroung only, so
if you could look into this, it would be nice.

Please take care of this. I haven't looked at the patches at all,
just worked around the bug locally by disabling the scripts
altogether.

hi,
Regarding the bug:
http://
CAN-2004-0554 user application can hang the kernel
http://
it seems that this is also a bug in the 2.4.18 kernel, at least
according to this URL:
http://

In this case this is a security problem for the kernel 2.4.18 pacakages
in stable IMHO, e.g. kernel-
Is anyone working on a new security release for 2.4.18?

On my kernel compiled from 2.4.18-2.4.18-14.3 source code,
plus the patch:
which is just adding one command in one header file:
include/
- asm volatile("fwait"); \
+ asm volatile("fnclex ; fwait"); \
this compiled and installed OK.
As an ordinary user, i compiled the proof-of-bug code with gcc 2.95.4
and it did not crash the box, but instead it output a non-stop string
of "." to the screen and used 99% of CPU until i killed it.
hope this helps
