From Wolfpaw:
Greetings,
Another serious security issue has been discovered in the Linux
Kernel. This issue can be exploited by anyone with access to a
C compiler (ie: everyone), and will cause the machine to crash.
In light of that fact, we have decided to update our kernels
ASAP. We will be rebooting the servers as soon as their kernels
are patched.. Assumably in the next hour.
Hence the SIGTERM crash which you saw. SIGTERM => signal sent to terminate |
