Descriptions

systeminfo.c for Sun Solaris allows local users to read kernel memory via a 0 variable count argument to the sysinfo system call, which causes a -1 argument to be used by the copyout function. NOTE: this issue has been referred to as an integer overflow, but it is probably more like a signedness error or integer underflow.

systeminfo.c para Sun Solaris permite a usuarios locales leer memoria del núcleo mediante un valor 0 para el argumento de número de variables en la llamada al sistema sysinfo, lo cual provoca que se utilice un argumento -1 en la función copyout. NOTA: este problema ha sido referido como un desbordamiento superior de entero, pero probablemente se parece más a un error de presencia de signo o un desbordamiento inferior de entero.
