Description Prasad Pandit 2013-06-06 06:16:24 UTC 
Linux kernel built with the Compaq SMART2(CONFIG_BLK_CPQ_DA) & Compaq
Smart Array 5xxx(CONFIG_BLK_CPQ_CISS_DA) support is vulnerable to an
information leakage flaw. This could occur while doing ioctl(2) calls
on block devices - /dev/ida/* & /dev/cciss/* - with command `IDAGETPCIINFO'
or `CCISS_PASSTHRU32'.

A user/program able to access above devices could use this flaw to leak kernel
memory bytes.
