[Bug 413656] Re: Local root exploit via CVE-2009-2692 (incorrect proto_ops initializations)

[jucs]

I must apologise: After a little more research I found out that this
might actually be connected to some older bug, that is already fixed. I
didn't know that this exploit tries out more than one way to break the
security ;-)

But even given that I don't really change my opinion - I do not have a
very special configuration; I think installing wine already sets
/proc/sys/vm/mmap_min_addr to zero. So this will actually affect the
utter most part of the ubuntu installations and is also caused by an
application inside the repository, which is therefor a part of ubuntu.
