NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream dlm-kmp-rt package and not the dlm-kmp-rt package as distributed by SLES.

The Linux kernel through 5.7.11 allows remote attackers to make observations that help to obtain sensitive information about the internal state of the network RNG, aka CID-f227e3ec3b5c. This is related to drivers/char/random.c and kernel/time/timer.c.
