This updated contains all the security and bug fixes from the
2.6.18-194.el5 kernel. In additions this update fixes the following
security issues :

  - a flaw was found in the Unidirectional Lightweight
    Encapsulation (ULE) implementation. A remote attacker
    could send a specially crafted ISO MPEG-2 Transport
    Stream (TS) frame to a target system, resulting in an
    infinite loop (denial of service). (CVE-2010-1086,
    Important)

  - on AMD64 systems, it was discovered that the kernel did
    not ensure the ELF interpreter was available before
    making a call to the SET_PERSONALITY macro. A local
    attacker could use this flaw to cause a denial of
    service by running a 32-bit application that attempts to
    execute a 64-bit application. (CVE-2010-0307, Moderate)

  - a flaw was found in the kernel connector implementation.
    A local, unprivileged user could trigger this flaw by
    sending an arbitrary number of notification requests
    using specially crafted netlink messages, resulting in a
    denial of service. (CVE-2010-0410, Moderate)

  - a flaw was found in the Memory-mapped I/O (MMIO)
    instruction decoder in the Xen hypervisor
    implementation. An unprivileged guest user could use
    this flaw to trick the hypervisor into emulating a
    certain instruction, which could crash the guest (denial
    of service). (CVE-2010-0730, Moderate)

  - a divide-by-zero flaw was found in the azx_position_ok()
    function in the driver for Intel High Definition Audio,
    snd-hda-intel. A local, unprivileged user could trigger
    this flaw to cause a kernel crash (denial of service).
    (CVE-2010-1085, Moderate)

This update also fixes the following bugs :

  - in some cases, booting a system with the 'iommu=on'
    kernel parameter resulted in a Xen hypervisor panic.
    (BZ#580199)

  - the fnic driver flushed the Rx queue instead of the Tx
    queue after fabric login. This caused crashes in some
    cases. (BZ#580829)

  - 'kernel unaligned access' warnings were logged to the
    dmesg log on some systems. (BZ#580832)

  - the 'Northbridge Error, node 1, core: -1 K8 ECC error'
    error occurred on some systems using the amd64_edac
    driver. (BZ#580836)

  - in rare circumstances, when using kdump and booting a
    kernel with 'crashkernel=128M@16M', the kdump kernel did
    not boot after a crash. (BZ#580838)

  - TLB page table entry flushing was done incorrectly on
    IBM System z, possibly causing crashes, subtle data
    inconsistency, or other issues. (BZ#580839)

  - iSCSI failover times were slower than in Red Hat
    Enterprise Linux 5.3. (BZ#580840)

  - fixed floating point state corruption after signal.
    (BZ#580841)

  - in certain circumstances, under heavy load, certain
    network interface cards using the bnx2 driver and
    configured to use MSI-X, could stop processing
    interrupts and then network connectivity would cease.
    (BZ#587799)

  - cnic parts resets could cause a deadlock when the bnx2
    device was enslaved in a bonding device and that device
    had an associated VLAN. (BZ#581148)

  - some BIOS implementations initialized interrupt
    remapping hardware in a way the Xen hypervisor
    implementation did not expect. This could have caused a
    system hang during boot. (BZ#581150)

  - AMD Magny-Cours systems panicked when booting a 32-bit
    kernel. (BZ#580846)

The system must be rebooted for this update to take effect."
