    There has been traffic on the bugtraq mailing list about three
    vulnerablities in the kernel that is distributed by various vendors
    (Immunix and RedHat are the two I have found so far) as well as an
    explanation by Chris Evans on Feb. 9. As of yet I have seen nothing from
    Mandrake about whether or not this is a problem for the distros we use.
    Is there an official party line about the sysctl() call vulnerability yet?
     Are there any recommendations concerning this vulnerability?

    Thanks for the time
