Hi!

Unfortunately, a new serious kernel vulnerability has been discovered in the 
2.4 series. The attached patch fixes the code in the sys_mremap system call, 
it is included in the just released 2.4.24 kernel.

Exploit code has been claimed to be existing, but has not yet been published.

I am currently testing the RSBAC 1.2.2 port to 2.4.24, so please stay tuned if 
you plan to update your kernel ASAP.

Amon.
