2.4 Edition "2.4.20-WOLK4.17s" available !!

All of you out there using 2.4-WOLK, update please. It contains a local exploitable security fix.

A v4.18s is already cooking up with lots of more fixes and updates (even newest grsecurity 2.0.2), but this security update had to come first. I think you all know why ;-)

Have fun and spread WOLK ;)

You think "holy shit that is kinda outdated?" - Well, 2.4.20 mainline is outdated alot, but 2.4-WOLK is up2date with almost everything which is important for server/security/production usage with 2.4.28 mainline and even the RMAP VM is beeing fixed by me since Rik van Riel lost interrest in maintaining rmap.... read more
