Descriptions

The hso_get_count function in drivers/net/usb/hso.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 a TIOCGICOUNT ioctl call.

La función hso_get_count en drivers/net/usb/hso.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 TIOCGICOUNT.
