CVSS v2 Base Score: 1.9 | Impact Score: 2.9 | Exploitability Score: 3.4

VMScore: 170

Vector: AV:L/AC:M/Au:N/C:P/I:N/A:N

The ATM implementation in the Linux kernel prior to 3.6 does not initialize certain structures, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel stack memory via a crafted application.
