CWE-125

Description

A kernel data leak due to an out-of-bound read was found in the Linux kernel in inet_diag_msg_sctp{,l}addr_fill() and sctp_get_sctp_info() functions present since version 4.7-rc1 through version 4.13. A data leak happens when these functions fill in sockaddr data structures used to export socket's diagnostic information. As a result, up to 100 bytes of the slab data could be leaked to a userspace.

Affected configurations

• linux linux kernel (>= 4.7 <= 4.13) • linux linux kernel 4.7 • debian debian linux 8.0 • debian debian linux 9.0
