Descriptions

Unspecified vulnerability in ptrace in NetBSD-current before 20061027, NetBSD 3.0 and 3.0.1 before 20061027, and NetBSD 2.x before 20061119 allows local users to read kernel memory and obtain sensitive information via certain manipulations of a PT_LWPINFO request, which leads to a memory leak and information leak.

Vulnerabilidad no especificada en ptrace en NetBSD-current versiones anteriores a 20061027, NetBSD 3.0 y 3.0.1 versiones anteriores a 20061027, y NetBSD 2.x versiones anteriores a 20061019, permite a usuarios locales leer la memoria del kernel y obtener información confidencial mediante manipulaciones concretas de peticiones PT_LWPINFO, lo que conduce a fugas de memoria y de información.
