Default Kernel Upgrades

Hello Everyone,
To help maintain our server security, stability, and your site's uptime, we are currently upgrading the kernels on our shared servers tonight. This was in response to a potential security vulnerability that would allow users to obtain root access. We tested the exploit on our development servers and it failed, however, we are still going to upgrade all of our kernels to be on the safe side.

Thanks for choosing HostGator!
