| Vetor | AV:L/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:N/A:N |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Linux kernel version 2.4
Description
The issue is related to the Linux kernel's handling of IPv4 socket names. Specifically, the
net/ipv4/af inet.c file does not properly clear the sockaddr in.sin zero field before returning socket names from certain functions. This can allow local users to access potentially sensitive memory contents. The affected functions include getsockname, getpeername, and accept.Recommendations
For Linux kernel version 2.4, consider applying a patch that properly clears the
sockaddr in.sin zero field in the getsockname, getpeername, and accept functions to prevent potential memory leaks.Exploit
