! 50: Two problems have recently been discovered in the KerberosIV code.<p>
! 51: 1. A symlink problem was discovered in the KerberosIV password checking
! 52: routines /usr/bin/su and /usr/bin/login, which makes it possible for a
! 53: local user to overwrite any file on the local machine.<p>
! 54: 2. It is possible to specify to specify environment variables in telnet
! 55: which will be passed over the to the remote host. This makes it
! 56: possible to set environment variables on the remote side, including
! 57: ones that have special meaning on the server. It is not clear at this
! 58: time what the impact is, but we recommend everyone to upgrade their
! 59: machines immediatly.<p>

88: On some machines, a PCIBIOS device driver interrupt allocation bug can cause a

90: PCIBIOS as a workaround. To do this,
91: <ul>
92: <li>Enter the User Kernel Configuration by booting with the
93: option "boot -c".
94: <li>Once at the <i>UKC></i> prompt, enter <pre><tt>

97: </tt></pre>

99: boot for instructions on how to re-write your kernel to disable PCIBIOS
