Design/Logic Flaw

The yamioctl function in drivers/net/hamradio/yam.c in the Linux kernel before 3.12.8 does not initialize a certain structure member, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel memory by leveraging the CAPNETADMIN capability for an SIOCYAMGCFG ioctl call...

CVE-2014-1446

CVE-2014-1446 affects the Linux kernel up to version 3.12.7, where the yam_ioctl handler in drivers/net/hamradio/yam.c fails to initialize a structure member. This can allow a local attacker with CAP_NET_ADMIN to leak kernel memory via an SIOCYAMGCFG ioctl, enabling information disclosure. The ex...
