We (the -stable team) are announcing the release of the 2.6.17.10 kernel.
It contains three security fixes: one for SCTP, one for UDF filesystems,
and one that only can be triggered by a local root user.
I'll also be replying to this message with a copy of the patch between
2.6.17.9 and 2.6.17.10, as it is small enough to do so.
The updated 2.6.17.y git tree can be found at:
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-2.6.17.y.git
and can be browsed at the normal kernel.org git web browser:
