What about the brk() integer overflow bug of which I found out recently ? 
Seems to be fixed between 2.4.22 and 2.4.23. As the Debian guys say there 
seems to be an exploit in the wild already. Has anyone a patch against 
2.4.21 (/w XFS 1.3.1) for this one ? Otherwise I cannot use 2.4.21 ... :-/

Thanks
