[CVE-2016-5195]: Fix dirty COW vulnerability in Linux Kernel (!7) · Merge requests · Turris / openwrt · GitLab

GitLab now enforces expiry dates on tokens that originally had no set expiration date. Those tokens were given an expiration date of one year later. Please review your personal access tokens, project access tokens, and group access tokens to ensure you are aware of upcoming expirations. Administrators of GitLab can find more information on how to identify and mitigate interruption in our documentation.

Self sign-up has been disabled due to increased spam activity. If you want to get access, please send an email to a project owner (preferred) or at gitlab(at)nic(dot)cz. We apologize for the inconvenience.

Ondřej Surý requested to merge dirty-cow into test Oct 26, 2016

Tested the builds on top of stable branches and the both kernels applies cleanly and builds fine.

Turris mpc85xx (configs/turris)
Omnia mvebu (configs/omnia)

The changes are very minimal and just as an assurance - the same patch was applied to 3.16.x Debian kernel as-is: https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/kernel/linux.git/commit/?h=jessie-security&id=46f7cac7d0e62a88925ed4bb442c9f33e8aae427
