Red Hat Security Advisory RHSA-2001:047-03 - All Linux kernels prior to version 2.2.19 include possibilities for local denial of service or root exploits by exercising race conditions between the ptrace, exec, and/or suid system calls. Additionally, the sysctl system call included programming errors allowing a user to write to kernel memory. The 2.2.19 kernel fixes these problems.
