Hi,
I've just put out the Linux 2.4.35-ow1 patch. This is
merely an update
to Linux 2.4.35.
The patch is available at the usual location:
http://www.openwall.co
m/linux/
The single known security-relevant change added with Linux
2.4.35 is
correction of the randomness pool update bug discovered by
the PaX Team.
Other than that, Linux 2.4.35 includes several driver
updates that add
support for newer hardware (e.g., for new revisions of
Intel's Gigabit
Ethernet controller as found on many recent motherboards).
Chances are that I will release another update of the patch
soon. This
is also the reason why I am not yet updating Owl to use this
new kernel.
No promises, though.
