Descriptions

The tcf_act_police_dump function in net/sched/act_police.c in the actions implementation in the network queueing functionality in the Linux kernel before 2.6.36-rc4 does not properly initialize certain structure members, which allows local users to obtain potentially sensitive information from kernel memory via vectors involving a dump operation. NOTE: this vulnerability exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2010-2942.

La función tcf_act_police_dump en net/sched/act_police.c del kernel Linux anterior a la v2.6.36-rc4 no inicializa apropiadamente ciertos miembros de estructura, lo que permite a usuarios locales obtener información potencialmente sensible de la memoria del kernel a través de vectores que involucran una operación de volcado (dump). NOTA: esta vulnerabilidad existe como consecuencia de una solución incompleta para CVE-2010-2942.
