Any patches for SunOS 5.11?

I need patch against the I_PEEK Local Kernel memory Leak Exploit
But i'm unable to find any patches for Solaris 5.11, and smpatch is no longer supported... So, do you have any suggestions how to patch my system?
Thanks.

solaris 5.11 is solaris nevada. the development edition. this is not a released version of solaris, so there are NO patches. if you need a bugfix, you've to download the newest version of nevada and upgrade your older version...
for a productive environment you should better use solaris 10. smpatch IS working on this release. And if the environment is critical you better also go for an service account!

A slight qualification on the previous post.

The OpenSolaris distribution is a released product based on the SunOS 5.11 Kernel, however I do not know if there have been any patches released for it. To check you would need to enable the IPS repository on pkg.opensolaris.org and check for updates.
