Howdy all,
I just finished rolling Centos/RHEL RPMs to protect my boxes against
the vmsplice() exploit that made Slashdot, etc. It's just Centos's
latest kernel with the upstream kernel patch applied.
They're not extensively tested, but I have it running on several
servers, and a colleague has it rolled out to about 30 boxes, with no
reported problems.
If anyone wants to grab them, they're at

Cheers,
