Detail

The ext3 code in Linux 2.4.x before 2.4.26 does not properly initialize journal descriptor blocks, which causes an information leak in which in-memory data is written to the device for the ext3 file system, which allows privileged users to obtain portions of kernel memory by reading the raw device.

Id Description
5363 Linux Kernel ext3 File Systems Information Leak

The Linux kernel contains a flaw that may lead to an unauthorized information disclosure. The issue is triggered when the kernel does not properly initialize the journal descriptor blocks, which will disclose information stored in kernel memory to the ext3 file system device, resulting in a loss of confidentiality.
