[Bug 253787] Re: [CVE-2008-2931] Local privilege escalation in Linux (do_change_type() in fs/namespace.c)

[Leann Ogasawara]

Thanks Alexander,

The security team has backported patches for this.  They are currently
pending and awaiting arrival into the archive.  Also, you had correctly
opened this against the 2.6.20 kernel source.  It's only for bugs
against 2.6.24 or later that they will target the "linux" package.
Thanks.
