Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update to udev
announced via advisory MDVSA-2009:104.

Vulnerability Insight:
udev before 1.4.1 does not verify whether a NETLINK message originates
from kernel space, which allows local users to gain privileges by
sending a NETLINK message from user space (CVE-2009-1185).

The updated packages have been patched to prevent this.

Affected: Corporate 4.0

Solution:
To upgrade automatically use MandrakeUpdate or urpmi. The verification
of md5 checksums and GPG signatures is performed automatically for you.

CVSS Score:
7.2

CVSS Vector:
