- This is the fifth regular kernel update to Red Hat Enterprise Linux version
- 2.1. It contains one minor security fix, many bug fixes, and updates a
- number of device drivers.
-
- A bug in the SoundBlaster 16 code which did not properly handle certain
- sample sizes has been fixed. This flaw could be used by local users to
- crash a system. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project
- (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CAN-2004-0178 to this issue.
-
- The following drivers have also been updated:
-
- * cciss v2.4.52
- * e1000 v5252k1
- * e100 v2.3.43-k1
- * fusion v2.05.16
- * ips v7.00.15
- * aacraid v1.1.5
- * megaraid2 v2.10.6
-
- All Red Hat Enterprise Linux 2.1 users are advised to upgrade their kernels
- to the packages associated with their machine architectures and
- configurations as listed in this erratum.
