Attack profile from CVSS 3.1 · CISA ADP. Fix status from CNA. Impact type from CWE-908 and the CVSS impact.
Summary
The compat32 kevent() handler translates a 64-bit kevent struct into a stack- declared 32-bit struct. It did not first zero the stack struct. An unprivileged user may observe a small amount of uninitialized kernel stack data, which may contain sensitive information.
