Descriptions

The eql_g_master_cfg function in drivers/net/eql.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.36-rc5 does not properly initialize a certain structure member, which allows local users to obtain potentially sensitive information from kernel stack memory via an EQL_GETMASTRCFG ioctl call.

La función eql_g_master_cfg en drivers/net/eql.c en el kernel Linux anterior a la versión 2.6.36-rc5, no inicia adecuadamente un miembro de cierta estructura, lo que permite a usuarios locales obtener información potencialmente sensible de la pila de memoria del kernel mediante una llamada ioctl EQL_GETMASTRCFG.
