Debian: New Linux 2.6.18 packages fix several vulnerabilities

LinuxSecurity.com: Several local vulnerabilities have been discovered in the Linux kernel that may lead to a denial of service or the execution of arbitrary code. Bart Oldeman reported a denial of service (DoS) issue in the VFAT filesystem that allows local users to corrupt a kernel structure resulting in a system crash. This is only an issue for systems which make use of the VFAT compat ioctl interface, such as systems running an 'amd64' flavor kernel.
