| Description |
| The actions implementation in the network queueing functionality in
the Linux kernel before 2.6.36-rc2 does not properly initialize
certain structure members when performing dump operations, which
allows local users to obtain potentially sensitive information from
kernel memory via vectors related to (1) the tcf_gact_dump function in
net/sched/act_gact.c, (2) the tcf_mirred_dump function in
net/sched/act_mirred.c, (3) the tcf_nat_dump function in
net/sched/act_nat.c, (4) the tcf_simp_dump function in
net/sched/act_simple.c, and (5) the tcf_skbedit_dump function in
net/sched/act_skbedit.c.
