Vulnerabilities are found in Linux Kernel

[seachen]

Hi,

I saw some hosting company post news as below:

Vulnerabilities are found in the Linux Kernel (CVE-2010-3081). Customers running CentOS or Debian or using the vanilla kernel are affected and advised to patch their current systems. For further information, please contact us regarding patching. Currently, vendors have not given any security updates yet. Customers subscribed our management services will have our custom kernel installed. This is a serious security issue. Customers chosen not to patch their systems might result in hacking attempts or data loss.

May I know how to patch?

Use the kernel update for your OS distribution.
