We are still investigating, but there seems to be a major security problem in at least some versions of reiserfs. Since reiserfs is shipped with newer versions of SuSE Linux and the problem is too easy to reproduce and VERY dangerous I think alerting people to this problem is in order.
Sorry, a quick attempt at reproducing on 2.2.17 and 2.2.19 kernels did not cause an oops. Could you please send me a decoded version of the oops to help track things down? thanks, Chris
