Description:   Opened: 2008-02-10 14:01 0000 
After upgrading to latest kernel (2.6.24.1) that should contain VMSPLICE
exploit patch I noticed that it is still possible to gain root account on my
machine.

I heard that some kernel-configuration might help, but haven't tried yet. Bug
still exists and patch haven't helped.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Log in to your non-root account
2. Run vmsplice exploit
3. Make fun with your root account :/
