| Vetor | AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Linux kernel versions prior to 4.6.4
Description
The issue is related to the
tipc nl compat link dump function in net/tipc/netlink compat.c, which does not properly copy a certain string. This allows local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel stack memory by reading a Netlink message.Recommendations
For Linux kernel versions prior to 4.6.4, update to version 4.6.4 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to Netlink messages to minimize the risk of exploitation.
