Subject: is there a patch for the routing-table dos?

Hi all,

a few days ago I noticed that red hat
(http://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2003-172.html) released a new
kernel with a fix for a denial-of-serice attack against the routing
table of the kernel.

I wonder if there is a official patch for 2.4.x (2.4.18 would be nice)
and/or if a patch will go into 2.4.21....

thanks,
Michael
