Detail

Race condition in the do_add_counters function in netfilter for Linux kernel 2.6.16 allows local users with CAP_NET_ADMIN capabilities to read kernel memory by triggering the race condition in a way that produces a size value that is inconsistent with allocated memory, which leads to a buffer over-read in IPT_ENTRY_ITERATE.

Id Description
25697 Linux Kernel Netfilter do_add_counters() Function Local Memory Disclosure

The Linux kernel contains a flaw that may lead to an unauthorized information disclosure. The issue is triggered because of a race condition in the Linux netfilter code. The 'do_add_counters()' function in 'net/ipv4/netfilter/arp_tables.c' and 'net/ipv6/netfilter/arp_tables.c' lacks a check for a parameter that might allow 'IPT_ENTRY_ITERATE()' to read beyond its intended boundaries, potentially accessing sensitive kernel memory and hence resulting in a loss of confidentiality.
