Descriptions
The acpi_ns_terminate() function in drivers/acpi/acpica/nsutils.c in the Linux kernel before 4.12 does not flush the operand cache and causes a kernel stack dump, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel memory and bypass the KASLR protection mechanism (in the kernel through 4.9) via a crafted ACPI table.
La función acpi_ns_terminate() en el archivo drivers/acpi/acpica/nsutils.c en el kernel de Linux anterior a versión 4.12, no limpia la caché operand y causa un volcado de pila del kernel, que permite a los usuarios locales obtener información confidencial de la memoria del kernel y omitir el mecanismo de protección KASLR (en el kernel hasta versión 4.9) por medio de una tabla ACPI creada.
