Just a quick note that I am walking the patch for CVE-2016-8655 down the gentoo-sources kernels.
Yesterday, I released the following kernels with the patch backported:
sys-kernel/gentoo-sources-4.8.12-r1
sys-kernel/gentoo-sources-4.4.36
sys-kernel/gentoo-sources-4.1.36-r1
Updated: 12/08
Also patched:
sys-kernel/gentoo-sources-3.18.45-r1
sys-kernel/gentoo-sources-3.12.68-r1
Updated 12/09
sys-kernel/gentoo-sources-3.10.104-r1
sys-kernel/gentoo-sources-3.4.113-r1
Updated 12/11
sys-kernel/gentoo-sources-3.14.79-r1
If Alice does not get to the others before me, I will continue to walk down the versions until all of them are patched.
Done.
