CVE-2010-3877 [LOW] kernel: net/tipc/socket.c: reading uninitialized stack memory
kernel: net/tipc/socket.c: reading uninitialized stack memory
The get_name function in net/tipc/socket.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.37-rc2 does not initialize a certain structure, which allows local users to obtain potentially sensitive information from kernel stack memory by reading a copy of this structure.
Statement: This issue did not affect the version of Linux kernel as shipped with Red Hat
Enterprise Linux 3, 4 and Red Hat Enterprise MRG as they did not include
support for Transparent Inter-Process Communication Protocol (TIPC). A future
kernel update in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 may address this flaw.
