Descriptions

The xfs_ioc_fsgetxattr function in fs/xfs/linux-2.6/xfs_ioctl.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.36-rc4 does not initialize a certain structure member, which allows local users to obtain potentially sensitive information from kernel stack memory via an ioctl call.

La función xfs_ioc_fsgetxattr en fs/xfs/linux-2.6/xfs_ioctl.c del kernel Linux anterior a v2.6.36-rc4 no inicializa apropiadamente ciertos miembros de estructura, lo que permite a usuarios locales obtener información potencialmente sensible de la pila de memoria del kernel a través de una llamada ioctl.
