is the third regular update.
This update has been rated as having important security impact by the Red
Hat Security Response Team.
2. Relevant releases/architectures:

3. Description:
The Linux kernel (the core of the Linux operating system)
These updated packages contain 730 bug fixes and enhancements for the Linux
kernel. Space precludes a detailed description of each of these changes in
this advisory and users are therefore directed to the release notes for Red
Hat Enterprise Linux 5.3 for information on 97 of the most significant of
these changes.
Details of three security-related bug fixes are set out below, along with
notes on other broad categories of change not covered in the release notes.
For more detailed information on specific bug fixes or enhancements, please
consult the Bugzilla numbers listed in this advisory.
* when fput() was called to close a socket, the __scm_destroy() function
in the Linux kernel could make indirect recursive calls to itself. This
could, potentially, lead to a denial of service issue. (CVE-2008-5029,
Important)
* a flaw was found in the Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) subsystem. A
local, unprivileged user could use the flaw to listen on the same socket
more than once, possibly causing a denial of service. (CVE-2008-5079,
Important)
* a race condition was found in the Linux kernel "inotify" watch removal
and umount implementation. This could allow a local, unprivileged user
to cause a privilege escalation or a denial of service. (CVE-2008-5182,
Important)
