------------------- This is a commit scheduled for the next v2.6.34 longterm release. If you see a problem with using this for longterm, please comment. -------------------
commit 42eab94fff18cb1091d3501cd284d6bd6cc9c143 upstream.
Structures ipt_replace, compat_ipt_replace, and xt_get_revision are copied from userspace. Fields of these structs that are zero-terminated strings are not checked. When they are used as argument to a format string containing "%s" in request_module(), some sensitive information is leaked to userspace via argument of spawned modprobe process.
The first bug was introduced before the git epoch; the second is introduced by 6b7d31fc (v2.6.15-rc1); the third is introduced by 6b7d31fc (v2.6.15-rc1). To trigger the bug one should have CAP_NET_ADMIN.
