Kernel 2.4.24-linode19-1um brings us up to date with the latest Linux kernel version (2.4.24 changelog) which contains a local root exploit fix (details here and here), and also brings us up to date with the latest UML patch (2.4.23-1um).
How to Upgrade
See if you're already running 2.4.24-linode19-1um by viewing the output of "uname -a" inside your Linode. If not, follow this procedure:
:arrow: Log into the Linode Platform Manager (LPM)
:arrow: Configuration Profiles --> Click on your configuration profile
:arrow: Make sure the Kernel drop-down has "Latest 2.4 Series" selected and Save
:arrow: Reboot your Linode
Thanks and enjoy!
