  "details" : [ "A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's AF_KEY networking component. When handling PF_KEY export paths, the pfkey_sockaddr_fill() function does not fully initialize sockaddr_in6 structures, leaving 4 bytes of memory uninitialized. This can lead to the disclosure of potentially sensitive information from the kernel's memory." ],
