Descriptions

SystemTap 1.7, 1.6.7, and probably other versions, when unprivileged mode is enabled, allows local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel memory or cause a denial of service (kernel panic and crash) via vectors related to crafted DWARF data, which triggers a read of an invalid pointer.

SystemTap 1.7, 1.6.7, y probablemente otras versiones, cuando el modo no privilegiado está habilitado, permite a usuarios locales obtener información sensible de la memoria del kernel o causar una denegación de servicio (kernel panic y caída) a través de vectores relacionados con datos DWARF manipulados, lo cual provoca una lectura de un puntero no válido.
