Mandrake Linux Advisory: 24mdk Kernel Update Unsafe Jul 24, 2003, 01 :46 UTC (3 Talkback[s]) (5146 reads)
This is an urgent message for all 9.1 users. Please back out of the 24mdk
kernel update and downgrade to 18mdk or 13mdk as soon as you are able. A
problem exists in all kernels (except kernel-secure) where newly created
files are created mode 0666 (world writeable) on any filesystem other than
XFS, including remote NFS mounts.
We are working hard to attempt to get this problem corrected with new
kernels available in the next 24-48hrs.
