I have a potato system - with the 2.2.18 kernel. Somone has gotten into a box on my network and used this exploit to gain root: http://:infected.ilm.net/xpl0itz/l1nux/epcs2.c+epcs2&hl=en&ie=ISO-8859-1 The other boxes that are net accessible are openbsd -- This system is a dual p6 so I need debian for smp. Is there a proper 'debian' way to go about patching the kernel against this exploit, or updating the kernel to 2.4. Thanks, David Rolfe @ work
