Dear Clients, 

Recently we have been notified by RedHat about a serious vulnerability that exists in the Kernels memory subsystem. This issue is very serious, and providers around the world are all currently updating their systems to make sure they are fully secure. Users can gain full access to servers which could cause serious issues. 

At XiNiX we are very involved with the security of our systems, and when something like this comes out we want to apply it as quick as possible to all of our servers before anything serious happens. 

Since there are a lot of servers that need to be updated, there is no scheduled time for this to happen. The downtime however should be no more than 10-15 minutes which you will most likely not notice in the next 1-2 days. 


You can read more about this vulnerability here: https://access.redhat.com/security/vulnerabilities/2706661


Even though for most users this will be unnoticed, it is our responsibility to notify you and let you know what is going on. 

If you see your Service, and if its more than 30-40 minutes, please open a ticket. 


We appreciate your patience and understanding our concern on keeping your data secure. 

Best Regards, 

Daniel M
