Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Linux kernel versions prior to 3.12.4
Description
The issue allows local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel memory. This can be achieved through certain system calls, including
recvfrom, recvmmsg, or recvmsg. The mISDN sock recvmsg function in the Linux kernel does not properly validate a length value against the size of an associated data structure, leading to this information disclosure.Recommendations
For Linux kernel versions prior to 3.12.4, update to version 3.12.4 or later to resolve the issue.
