Paul Starzetz discovered a flaw in bounds checking in mremap() in
the Linux kernel (present in version 2.4.x and 2.6.x) which may
allow a local attacker to gain root privileges.  Version 2.2 is not
affected by this bug.

For the stable distribution (woody) this problem has been fixed in
version 2.4.18-13 for the alpha architecture.

For the unstable distribution (sid) this problem will be fixed soon
with newly uploaded packages.");
