aru Posted April 24, 2003 Report Share Posted April 24, 2003 MandrakeSoft Bugfix Advisory MDKA-2003:005 : ldetect April 24th, 2003 Updated ldetect packages fix system freeze Previous ldetect packages could freeze systems when harddrake probed for PCI information on the computer. This only occured rarely on some systems, when reading too much data from the PCI configuration space would result in a freeze of the system. This has been fixed in the ldetect engine by not buffering such reads, and only to read as many bytes as required from the PCI configuration space as exported by the kernel in/proc/bus/pci/*/*. The released versions of Mandrake GNU/Linux affected are: 9.0 [*] 9.1 [*] 9.1/PPC [*] Corporate Server 2.1 Full information about this advisory, including the updated packages, is available at: www.mandrakesecure.net/en/advisories/advisory.php?name=MDKA-2003:005 Posted automatically by aru (mdksec2mub v0.0.5) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
