knoppix 5.3, kernel without vmsplice exploit

[Gebhardt Thomas <gebhardt@hrz.uni-marburg.de>]

Hi,

the 2.6.24 kernel from the knoppix 5.3 DVD is affected by the
vmsplice local root exploit (just tested). While this doesn't matter
in most cases it is critical in kiosk-like environments.

Is there already a patched (e.g. 2.6.24.2 or similar) version of the
kernel or do I have to compile it by myself?

Thanks, Thomas
