+CVE ID         : CVE-2007-0005 CVE-2007-0958 CVE-2007-1357 CVE-2007-1592
+
+Several local and remote vulnerabilities have been discovered in the Linux
+kernel that may lead to a denial of service or the execution of arbitrary
+code. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the
+following problems:
+
+CVE-2007-0005
+
+    Daniel Roethlisberger discovered two buffer overflows in the cm4040
+    driver for the Omnikey CardMan 4040 device. A local user or malicious
+    device could exploit this to execute arbitrary code in kernel space.
+
+CVE-2007-0958
+
+    Santosh Eraniose reported a vulnerability that allows local users to read
+    otherwise unreadable files by triggering a core dump while using PT_INTERP.
+    This is related to CVE-2004-1073.
+
+CVE-2007-1357
+
+    Jean Delvare reported a vulnerability in the appletalk subsystem.
+    Systems with the appletalk module loaded can be triggered to crash
+    by other systems on the local network via a malformed frame.
+
+CVE-2007-1592
+
+    Masayuki Nakagawa discovered that flow labels were inadvertently
+    being shared between listening sockets and child sockets. This defect
+    can be exploited by local users to cause a DoS (Oops).
+
+This problem has been fixed in the stable distribution in version 
+2.6.18.dfsg.1-12etch1.
+
+The following matrix lists additional packages that were rebuilt for
+compatibility with or to take advantage of this update:
+
+                                 Debian 4.0 (etch)
+     fai-kernels                 <need binNMU>
+     user-mode-linux
+
+We recommend that you upgrade your kernel package immediately and reboot
+the machine. If you have built a custom kernel from the kernel source
+package, you will need to rebuild to take advantage of these fixes.
+
+Upgrade Instructions
+--------------------
+
+wget url
+        will fetch the file for you
+dpkg -i file.deb
+        will install the referenced file.
+
+If you are using the apt-get package manager, use the line for
+sources.list as given below:
+
+apt-get update
+        will update the internal database
+apt-get upgrade
+        will install corrected packages
+
+You may use an automated update by adding the resources from the
+footer to the proper configuration.
+
+
+Debian GNU/Linux 4.0 alias etch
+--------------------------------
+
+
+  These files will probably be moved into the stable distribution on
+  its next update.
