CVE-2010-4078
First published: Mon Nov 01 2010(Updated: )
Description of problem: The FBIOGET_VBLANK device ioctl in sis_main.c allows unprivileged users to read 16 bytes of uninitialized stack memory, because the 'reserved' member of the fb_vblank struct declared on the stack is not altered or zeroed before being copied back to the user.
