Linux 2.6.20.17 Kernel Released

If you're still using the Linux 2.6.20 kernel, the sixteenth iteration has been released with three security fixes. The three fixes in the Linux 2.6.20.17 kernel are for the stack-based buffer overflow in the random number generator, sending arbitrary signals to a child process that is running at higher privileges, and a security problem in the drm/i915 component. The Linux 2.6.20.17 kernel announcement can be read on Google Groups.
