SuSE 10 Security Update : Linux kernel (ZYPP Patch Number 2606)

This kernel update fixes the following security problems : - The ftdisio driver allowed local users to cause a denial of service memory consumption by writing more data to the serial port than the hardware can handle, which causes the data to be queued. This requires this driver to be loaded, whi...
