Security Update: kernel and glibc
Patrick has just issued another security advisory related to kernel. This time, it could lead to possible stack exhaustion, memory corruption, and arbitrary code execution. Both -current and -stable (14.2) are updated with the latest LTS kernel 4.9.35 and 4.4.75.
The other advisory released today was about glibc, which is now rebuilt with upstream patches to improve security. This update was also applied back to 14.2.
You should deploy the updates as soon as possible and reboot the machine in order to get the fixes along with other updates included in the latest kernel release.
