  • 3/3 We identified a handful of servers with the vulnerable module built in to the kernel. We've contacted affected customers.

    @beasts@social.mythic-beasts.com TBF the module is rarely used (one has to wonder why RH et al decided to build it in kernel), but AFAIK once you use the AF_ALG address family in a socket, it loads it automatically, which is what the exploit does.
