SOLVED kcarectl version up to date but still getting warning

[durangod]

Hi, i know there are several of these posts out there but it seems there must be a kazillion different kernels on the market for some reason and so i thought it would be better to do this individually. If i am wrong and there is a solution to this please share the correct link, thanks.

Im still getting the race condition advisory even though i joined the kernelcare service last week and even though i waited because they said it would take a few days to get a new kernel out.

How do i solve this warning and this security issue.

kernelcare has acknowledged that i am covered and that cpanel is aware of the notice bug...

thanks

Thanks for the added information. Initially, I thought that CPANEL-17016 only covered the free kernelcare patch; however, after reading the code changes, it appears to handle any symlink protection provided by kernelcare. So this should be corrected in cPanel 70
