NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream dtrace-modules-3.8.13-118.28.1.el7uek package and not the dtrace-modules-3.8.13-118.28.1.el7uek package as distributed by Oracle. See How to fix? for Oracle:7 relevant fixed versions and status.

An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel through 4.19. An information leak in cdrom_ioctl_select_disc in drivers/cdrom/cdrom.c could be used by local attackers to read kernel memory because a cast from unsigned long to int interferes with bounds checking. This is similar to CVE-2018-10940 and CVE-2018-16658.
