Linux Kernel <= 2.6.31-rc5 sigaltstack 4-Byte Stack Disclosure Exploit
======================================================================


/* 
 * sigaltstack-leak.c
 *
 * Linux Kernel <= 2.6.31-rc5 sigaltstack 4-Byte Stack Disclosure
 * Jon Oberheide 
 * 
 * Information:
 * 
 *   http://git.kernel.org/linus/0083fc2c50e6c5127c2802ad323adf8143ab7856
 * 
 *   Ulrich Drepper correctly points out that there is generally padding in
 *   the structure on 64-bit hosts, and that copying the structure from
 *   kernel to user space can leak information from the kernel stack in those
 *   padding bytes.
 * 
 * Notes:
 * 
 *   Only 4 bytes of uninitialized kernel stack are leaked in the padding 
 *   between stack_t's ss_flags and ss_size.  The disclosure only affects 
 *   affects 64-bit hosts.
