[Bug 190587] Re: Local root exploit in kernel 2.6.17 - 2.6.24 (vmsplice)

[Ken Simon]

Indeed, I ran the hotfix on my desktop last night (gutsy with latest
updates) and as soon as it finished, running programs began to crash.
I wasn't able to see any error messages to dmesg, but the system was
unstable enough that I had to reboot it.  I would *not* recommend
running the hotfix.
