Fedora: iproute Denial of service vulnerability
Summary
The iproute package contains networking utilities (ip and rtmon, for
example) which are designed to use the advanced networking
capabilities of the Linux 2.4.x and 2.6.x kernel.
This update of the iproute package fixes a security problem found in netlink. See CAN-2003-0856.
All users of the netlink application are very strongly advised to update to these latest packages.
