+
+2.2.27-rc1
+----------
+o CAN-2004-0497: fixed missing DAC check on sys_chown (Thomas Biege)
+o CAN-2004-1016: fixed a buffer overflow vulnerability (Paul Starzetz)
+ in the "__scm_send" function which handles the sending
+ of UDP network packets. A wrong validity check of the
+ cmsghdr structure allowed a local attacker to modify
+ kernel memory, thus causing an endless loop (DoS) or
+ possibly even root privilege escalation.
+o CAN-2004-1333: fixed integer overflow in the vc_resize (Georgi Guninski)
+ function allows local users to cause a denial of
+ service (kernel crash) via a short new screen value,
+ which leads to a buffer overflow. Make sure VC
+ resizing fits in s16.
+o If the user makes ip_cmsg_send call ip_options_get (Georgi Guninski)
+ multiple times, we leak kmalloced IP options data.
+o fixed moxa serial bound checking issue (Alan Cox)
+o menu cleanups (me)
+
+
+
+
+2.2.27-pre2
+-----------
+o A more correct fix to last mremap (2) bug (Dan Yefimov/Solar Designer)
+o renamed imho *bogus* _vsnprintf to vsnprintf (me)
+o fixed 'noexec' behaviour (2.4 backport) (me)
+ from Ulrich Drepper
+
+
+
+2.2.27-pre1
+-----------
+o fixed TCP keepalive bug (Neal Cardwell)
+o fixed tcp seq nr wrapping bug (Ulrik De Bie)
+o added cciss root translation table (Eduard Bloch)
+o VIA KL133/KM133 northbridge: vga console going crazy (Roberto Biancardi)
+o speedup 'make dep' (Benoit Poulot-Cazajous)
+o disabled MCE only on Pentiums by default (2.4 backport) (Herbert Xu)
+ (boot with 'mce' if your MCE works as expected)
+o skb_realloc_headroom() panics when new headroom is (James Morris)
+ smaller than existing headroom
+o invalid nh.raw use after free (Julian Anastasov)
+o fix a local APIC initaliziation ordering bug that (Andrea Arcangeli)
+ triggers on the P4
+o TSC calibration must be dynamic and not a compile (Andrea Arcangeli)
+ time thing because gettimeofday is dynamic and it
+ depends on the TSCs to be in sync
+o fix deadlock on shutdown in 8139too (Herbert Xu)
+o support for ELF executables which use an a.out format (Solar Designer)
+ interpreter (dynamic linker) moved into a separate
+ configuration option and disabled by default
+o fixed sys_utimes perm check according to sys_utim (Al Viro)
+o show us the saved kernel command line (2.4 backport) (me)
+o some whitespace cleanups, some coding style cleanups (me)
+o fixed some gcc warnings (me)
+o add PCI ID for 82820 NIC to eepro100 network driver (me)
+o move 'Network device support' near 'Networking options' (me)
