of the operating system: memory allocation, process allocation, device
input and output, etc.

Update Information:

Update to kernel 2.6.27.12:
http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/ChangeLog-2.6.27.10
http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/ChangeLog-2.6.27.11

CVE-2009-0065 kernel: sctp: memory overflow when FWD-TSN chunk is
received with bad stream ID
Also fixes bug 478299, reported against Fedora 10:
AVC denials on kernel 2.6.27.9-159.fc10.x86_64

Reverts ALSA driver to the version that is upstream in kernel 2.6.27.
This should fix lack of audio on headphone outputs for some notebooks.

ChangeLog:

- Fix CVE-2009-0065: SCTP buffer overflow
* Mon Jan 19 2009 Chuck Ebbert  2.6.27.12-78.2.5
- Revert ALSA to what is upstream in 2.6.27.
* Mon Jan 19 2009 Kyle McMartin  2.6.27.12-78.2.4
- Linux 2.6.27.12
* Mon Jan 19 2009 Kyle McMartin 
- Roll in xen changes to execshield diff as in later kernels.
(harmless on F-9 as xen was still separate.)
* Mon Jan 19 2009 Kyle McMartin 
- execshield fixes: should no longer generate spurious handled GPFs,
fixes randomization of executables. also some clean ups.
* Fri Jan 16 2009 Chuck Ebbert  2.6.27.12-78.2.3.rc2
- Linux 2.6.27.12-rc2";
