UnknownEPSS 0.39%

Last modified

CVE-2009-1192 is a vulnerability of currently unknown severity. The (1) agp_generic_alloc_page and (2) agp_generic_alloc_pages functions in drivers/char/agp/generic.c in the agp subsystem in the Linux kernel before 2.6.30-rc3 do not zero out pages that may later be available to a user-space process, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information by reading these pages.. EPSS estimates a 0.39% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
