CVE-2010-4081: Debian Linux

Low severity, CVSS 1.9. EPSS: 0.4% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

The snd_hdspm_hwdep_ioctl function in sound/pci/rme9652/hdspm.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.36-rc6 does not initialize a certain structure, which allows local users to obtain potentially sensitive information from kernel stack memory via an SNDRV_HDSPM_IOCTL_GET_CONFIG_INFO ioctl call.
