3. Problem description:
Several problems in ping are fixed:
1) Root privileges are dropped after acquiring a raw socket.
2) An 8 byte overflow of a static buffer "outpack" is prevented.
3) An overflow of a static buffer "buf" is prevented.
A non-exploitable root only segfault is fixed as well.

For each RPM for your particular architecture, run:
rpm -Fvh [filename]
where filename is the name of the RPM.
