Information disclosure in Linux kernel - CVE-2021-21781

Vulnerability identifier: #VU54395

CSH Severity: Low

CVSS v4: 4.8 [CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:L/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]

CVE-ID: CVE-2021-21781

CWE-ID: CWE-200

Exploitation vector: Local access

Exploit availability: No public exploit available

The vulnerability allows a local user to gain access to potentially sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to excessive data output in the ARM SIGPAGE functionality. A userland application can read the contents of the sigpage, which can leak kernel memory contents.
