New 'Looney Tunables' Linux bug gives root on major distros
(www.bleepingcomputer.com)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Thanks! Not just for notifying about the fix but also showing me where package revisions are built from! I just love the transparency of Arch.
Arch is a meme, but it is honestly really cool too.
