I've been running this on my two PogoLinux workstations (Mageia 5 x86_64) at home ever since it was built, and it's been fine.  I think we can validate this now.

Advisory (also added to svn):

  This kernel update is based on upstream 4.4.68 and fixes atleast
  the following security issues:

  The NFSv2/NFSv3 server in the nfsd subsystem in the Linux kernel through
  4.10.11 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (system crash)
  via a long RPC reply, related to net/sunrpc/svc.c, fs/nfsd/nfs3xdr.c, and
  fs/nfsd/nfsxdr.c (CVE-2017-7645).

  The NFSv2 and NFSv3 server implementations in the Linux kernel through
  4.10.13 lack certain checks for the end of a buffer, which allows remote
  attackers to trigger pointer-arithmetic errors or possibly have unspecified
  other impact via crafted requests, related to fs/nfsd/nfs3xdr.c and
  fs/nfsd/nfsxdr.c (CVE-2017-7895).

  For other upstream fixes in this update, see the referenced changelogs.
