All;
A new kernel has been released for CentOS 6. The CVE with details can be found below:
****This affects toolkits that are running perfSONAR 3.x version. If you are running perfSONAR 4.0, you can ignore this message. *******
If you are running a CentOS 6 kernel, 'yum update' may give you a new non-web100 kernel and therefore break access to NDT/NPAD.
If you are in doubt about your kernel, feel free to review the CVE, upgrade to the latest version, and forgo NDT/NPAD support for the time being. We are in the process of building and testing a new kernel, and will alert you when we have our web100 patched version available. We'll try to have it ready as soon as possible.
NOTE: The perfSONAR project will not be applying the web100 patch to any kernels released after October 17, 2017. This patch is only for CentOS 6 as the web100 patch is not compatible with the kernel released for CentOS 7.
Thank you for your patience,
The perfSONAR Team
