[OmniOS-discuss] Please UPDATE now

[Dan McDonald]

Hello OmniOS users!

Illumos bug 5421 was fixed in all OmniOS repos, and the r151012/Stable install media has been updated as well.  This bug had allowed an ordinary user in the global zone to kernel-panic the machine.  That bug is now fixed in illumos-gate, and all SUPPORTED OmniOS revisions:

	- bloody
	- r151012 (aka. Stable)
	- r151010 (aka. previous Stable)
	- r151006 (aka. Long-Term Support)

If you are on one of these supported OmniOS revisions, run "pkg update" now and reboot.  I requested a CVE number for all illumos distros, but the CVE folks haven't gotten back to me yet.

Thank you!
