"A flaw was found in the handling of IEEE 802.11 frames, which affected
several wireless LAN modules. In certain situations, a remote attacker
could trigger this flaw by sending a malicious packet over a wireless
network, causing a denial of service (kernel crash). (CVE-2007-4997,
Important)

A memory leak was found in the Red Hat Content Accelerator kernel
patch. A local user could use this flaw to cause a denial of service
(memory exhaustion). (CVE-2007-5494, Important)

Additionally, the following bugs were fixed :

  - when running the 'ls -la' command on an NFSv4 mount
    point, incorrect file attributes, and outdated file size
    and timestamp information were returned. As well,
    symbolic links may have been displayed as actual files.

  - a bug which caused the cmirror write path to appear
    deadlocked after a successful recovery, which may have
    caused syncing to hang, has been resolved.

  - a kernel panic which occurred when manually configuring
    LCS interfaces on the IBM S/390 has been resolved.

  - when running a 32-bit binary on a 64-bit system, it was
    possible to mmap page at address 0 without flag
    MAP_FIXED set. This has been resolved in these updated
    packages.

  - the Non-Maskable Interrupt (NMI) Watchdog did not
    increment the NMI interrupt counter in
    '/proc/interrupts' on systems running an AMD Opteron
    CPU. This caused systems running NMI Watchdog to restart
    at regular intervals.

  - a bug which caused the diskdump utility to run very
    slowly on devices using Fusion MPT has been resolved."
