CVE-2014-4027 – Kernel: target/rd: imformation leakage

https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2014-4027

The rd_build_device_space function in drivers/target/target_core_rd.c in the Linux kernel before 3.14 does not properly initialize a certain data structure, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information from ramdisk_mcp memory by leveraging access to a SCSI initiator. La función rd_build_device_space en drivers/target/target_core_rd.c en el kernel de Linux anterior a 3.14 no inicializa debidamente cierta estructura de datos, lo que permite a usuarios locales obtener información sensible de la memoria ramdisk_mcp mediante el aprovechamiento del acceso a un iniciador SCSI. An information leak flaw was found in the RAM Disks Memory Copy (rd_mcp) backend driver of the iSCSI Target subsystem of the Linux kernel. A privileged user could use this flaw to leak the contents of kernel memory to an iSCSI initiator remote client. • http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git%3Ba=commit%3Bh=4442dc8a92b8f9ad8ee9e7f8438f4c04c03a22dc http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-security-announce/2014-10/msg00006.html http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-security-announce/2014-10/msg00007.html http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.linux.scsi.target.devel/6618 http://secunia.com/advisories/59134 http://secunia.com/advisories/59777 http://secunia.com/advisories/60564 http://secunia.com/advisories/61310 http://www.openwall. • CWE-200: Exposure of Sensitive Information to an Unauthorized Actor •
