Linux security holes identified
Bluetooth bug bitten

RED HAT has discovered several new bugs in its Linux OS and has issued a security advisory rated 'moderate'. Both enterprise and desktop systems are affected.


A flaw in the ISDN CAPI subsystem could potentially allow a remote user to cause a denial of service or privilege escalation and a glitch in the Bluetooth subsystem could result in a local user triggering an information leak. Fixes for networking and login issues are also included.
The company is advising all users to update their systems accordingly.
