A new Linux kernel regression update is available for Ubuntu Linux. Here the announcement:
Ubuntu Security Notice USN-661-1 October 30, 2008
linux regression
https://launchpad.net/bugs/264019
===========================================================
A security issue affects the following Ubuntu releases:
Ubuntu 8.10
This advisory also applies to the corresponding versions of
Kubuntu, Edubuntu, and Xubuntu.
The problem can be corrected by upgrading your system to the
following package versions:
Ubuntu 8.10:
linux-image-2.6.27-7-generic 2.6.27-7.15
linux-image-2.6.27-7-server 2.6.27-7.15
linux-image-2.6.27-7-virtual 2.6.27-7.15
procps 1:3.2.7-9ubuntu2.1
After a standard system upgrade you need to reboot your computer to
effect the necessary changes.
Details follow:
Version 2.6.27 of the Linux kernel changed the order of options in
TCP headers. While this change was RFC-compliant, it was found that
some old routers and consumer DSL modems would not route traffic for
these systems when TCP timestamps were enabled. As a workaround, TCP
timestamps were disabled via sysctl.
This update restores the previous ordering of TCP options, and
reenables TCP timestamps. We apologize for the inconvenience.
Updated packages for Ubuntu 8.10:
