We (the -stable team) are announcing the release of the 2.6.25.5 kernel.

It contains a one security bug fix.  If you are using CIFS or SNMP NAT
you could be vulnerable and are encouraged to upgrade.

I'll also be replying to this message with a copy of the patch between
2.6.25.4 and 2.6.25.5

The updated 2.6.25.y git tree can be found at:
        git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-2.6.25.y.git
and can be browsed at the normal kernel.org git web browser:
        http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-2....

thanks,
-chris
