Note:
The redhat patches also fix the following:
> A flaw has been found in the "ioperm" system call, which fails to properly
> restrict privileges. This flaw can allow an unprivileged local user to
> gain read and write access to I/O ports on the system. The Common
> Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name
> CAN-2003-0246 to this issue.
