A security issue was found in the Linux kernel. The linux kernel iscsi initiator code allows initiator/target parameters to be negotiated than can be longer than 4k, since no limit is imposed. But when these values are displayed via sysfs, the sysfs subsystem limits that output to 4k, so the memory above that gets leaked.
