CVE-2011-1044 Open this link in a new tabHow to fix?
Upgrade Oracle:5 kernel-uek-debug to version 0:2.6.32-100.28.15.el5 or higher.
This issue was patched in ELSA-2011-2015.
NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream kernel-uek-debug package and not the kernel-uek-debug package as distributed by Oracle.
See How to fix? for Oracle:5 relevant fixed versions and status.
The ib_uverbs_poll_cq function in drivers/infiniband/core/uverbs_cmd.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.37 does not initialize a certain response buffer, which allows local users to obtain potentially sensitive information from kernel memory via vectors that cause this buffer to be only partially filled, a different vulnerability than CVE-2010-4649.
