what's the status of pld-th kernels? which versions are patched? which 
versions are upstream fixed?

Dirty COW (CVE-2016-5195) is a privilege escalation vulnerability in the 
Linux Kernel

https://dirtycow.ninja/

- 4.4 branch https://github.com/pld-linux/kernel/tree/LINUX_4_4 - 4.4.27 
- updated 3 days ago - likely patched?
- 3.18 branch https://github.com/pld-linux/kernel/tree/LINUX_3_18 - 
3.18.43 - updated 11 days ago - not patched?

what versions are supported anyway? i tried to update wiki page based on 
news from frontpage

https://www.pld-linux.org/packages/kernel

seems 4.4 lacks vserver support?
