FreeBSD Security Advisory - sctp Kernel Memory Disclosure: Posted Aug 23, 2013; Authored by Michael Tuexen, Julian Seward | Site security.freebsd.org; FreeBSD Security Advisory - When initializing the SCTP state cookie being sent in INIT-ACK chunks, a buffer allocated from the kernel stack is not completely initialized. Fragments of kernel memory may be included in SCTP packets and transmitted over the network. For each SCTP session, there are two separate instances in which a 4-byte fragment may be transmitted. This memory might contain sensitive information, such as portions of the file cache or terminal buffers. This information might be directly useful, or it might be leveraged to obtain elevated privileges in some way. For example, a terminal buffer might include an user-entered password.; tags | advisory, kernel; systems | freebsd; advisories | CVE-2013-5209; SHA-256 | 31263b7b248f107d5f7ed98d3b388e63dc69a3862d01f93e4c9b344f9c86de7c; Download | Favorite | View
