NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream kernel-uek-modules-desktop package and not the kernel-uek-modules-desktop package as distributed by Oracle. See How to fix? for Oracle:10 relevant fixed versions and status.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

xfrm_user: fix info leak in build_mapping()

struct xfrm_usersa_id has a one-byte padding hole after the proto field, which ends up never getting set to zero before copying out to userspace. Fix that up by zeroing out the whole structure before setting individual variables.
