Title:	Mandrake Security Advisory MDKSA-2007:226 (kernel)
Summary:	NOSUMMARY
Description:	Description: The remote host is missing an update to kernel announced via advisory MDKSA-2007:226. Some vulnerabilities were discovered and corrected in the Linux 2.6 kernel: The minix filesystem code allows local users to cause a denial of service (hang) via a malformed minix file stream (CVE-2006-6058). An integer underflow in the Linux kernel prior to 2.6.23 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a crafted SKB length value in a runt IEEE 802.11 frame when the IEEE80211_STYPE_QOS_DATA flag is set (CVE-2007-4997). To update your kernel, please follow the directions located at: http://www.mandriva.com/en/security/kernelupdate Affected: 2008.0 Solution: To upgrade automatically use MandrakeUpdate or urpmi. The verification of md5 checksums and GPG signatures is performed automatically for you. http://www.securityspace.com/smysecure/catid.html?in=MDKSA-2007:226 Risk factor : High CVSS Score: 7.1
