Summary0003040: Current Sana kernel is heavily outdated
Description

linux-image-4.0.0-kali1-amd64 was released with "RTM" Sana, built in June 2015 and is thusly heavily outdated and insecure. I can find at least six major vulnerabilities, three of which are remotely exploitable

Please provide an updated kernel for Sana.

This would also affect ARM/Rpi2 kernel AFAIK?

Please upgrade to kali-rolling 2016.1 instead, sana will have no further updates.

See the recent announce about this on kali.org.
