From ${URL} : Description OpenVZ has issued an update for kernel. This fixes a vulnerability, which can be exploited by malicious, local users to cause a DoS (Denial of Service) or potentially gain escalated privileges. The vulnerability is caused due to an error within the "mountpoint_last()" function (fs/namei.c) and can be exploited to cause an out-of-memory or use-after-free condition. Solution: Update kernel branch RHEL6 to 042stab092.3. Provided and/or discovered by: Vasily Averin, Parallels. Original Advisory: OpenVZ: http://wiki.openvz.org/Download/kernel/rhel6/042stab092.3 @maintainer(s): after the bump, in case we need to stabilize the package, please let us know if it is ready for the stabilization or not.
