Descriptions

The ext3 code in Linux 2.4.x before 2.4.26 does not properly initialize journal descriptor blocks, which causes an information leak in which in-memory data is written to the device for the ext3 file system, which allows privileged users to obtain portions of kernel memory by reading the raw device.

El código ext3 en Linux 2.4.x no inicializa adecuadamente bloques de descriptores de diario, lo que causa una fuga de información en la que datos de memoria son escritos en el dispositivo de un sistema de ficheros ext3, lo que permite a usuarios privilegiados obtener porciones de la memoria del kernel leyendo directamente del dispositivo.
