  "details" : [ "The tipc_nl_compat_link_dump function in net/tipc/netlink_compat.c in the Linux kernel through 4.6.3 does not properly copy a certain string, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel stack memory by reading a Netlink message.", "A leak of information was possible when issuing a netlink command of the stack memory area leading up to this function call.  An attacker could use this to determine stack information for use in a later exploit." ],
