Subject: SuSE: userhelper/usermode

Hi there,

SuSE distributions do not ship with the usermode package that contains the
userhelper program.

Therefore, SuSE distributions are not vulnerable to the recently published
attacks that target the usermode package.

Regards,
Roman Drahtmüller,
SuSE Security.
