Linux 2.6.16.23

From: Greg KH
Date: Fri Jun 30 2006 - 17:50:28 EST


We (the -stable team) are announcing the release of the 2.6.16.23 kernel.
Another SCTP remote crash fix, CVE-2006-2934, and a revert of a Kconfig
change that should have have gone into the 2.6.16-stable tree.

I'll also be replying to this message with a copy of the patch between
2.6.16.22 and 2.6.16.23, as it is small enough to do so.

The updated 2.6.16.y git tree can be found at:
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-2.6.16.y.git
and can be browsed at the normal kernel.org git web browser:
www.kernel.org/git/

thanks,

greg k-h
