From examining the vulnerable source code, we believe that StackGuard would stop this vulnerability. However, since there is no public exploit, we have not confirmed that StackGuard protects against this problem (Immunix is build using the StackGuard compiler, and 7.0 beta adds the FormatGuard glibc library patch as well as the Openwall and SubDomain kernel patch.) Because of this, we are releasing updated versions of these packages for those people who want to upgrade their machines. Packages have been created and released for both Immunix 6.2 and 7.0 beta.
