GHOST glibc patch for CentOS 4
Hello,
While I know this isn't cPanel related and that support for CentOS 4 has been dropped since February 2012, I was actually quite curious if anyone knows / has tested a patch for CentOS 4. I do know that the best solution is to update to a supported OS which receives updates and this will happen in the future but I'm hoping someone has found a fix for this old version of OS. Thanks in advance guys.

Hello :) Could you let us know what's preventing you from updating to a supported OS? Is there anything in particular that we could help you address so you can update? Thank you. 0 -

Hi Michael and thanks for your reply. No, the issues aren't software related but are caused by other factors that prevent us from migrating them. This would be ideal but we can't do this just now. I was hoping to find a RPM fixing this for CentOS 4. Does anyone know of any workaround? Thanks.0 -
There's the RedHat patch referenced by the other poster on this thread, however it's issues like this that should really make upgrading to a supported OS a top priority. I'm not aware of any other workarounds, but you could ask on the CentOS forums. Thank you. 0 -

Hi, Thought I'd follow up on this in case there are other people that need this. This did the trick for me : /http://www.playncoding.com/how-to-patch-glibc-ghost-vulnerability-cve-2015-0235-on-centos-4-rhel-4-oracle-enterprise-linux-4/ Thanks.0
