Descriptions

The ethtool_get_wol function in net/core/ethtool.c in the Linux kernel through 4.7, as used in Android before 2016-08-05 on Nexus 5 and 7 (2013) devices, does not initialize a certain data structure, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information via a crafted application, aka Android internal bug 28803952 and Qualcomm internal bug CR570754.

La función ethtool_get_wol en net/core/ethtool.c en el kernel de Linux hasta la versión 4.7, como se usa en Android en versiones anteriores a 2016-08-05 en dispositivos Nexus 5 y 7 (2013), no inicializa una cierta estructura de datos, lo que permite a usuarios locales obtener información sensible a través de una aplicación manipulada, también conocido como error interno de Android 28803952 y error interno de Qualcomm CR570754.
