+Description:
+ Race condition in the environ_read function in fs/proc/base.c in the Linux kernel
+ before 4.5.4 allows local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel memory
+ by reading a /proc/*/environ file during a process-setup time interval in which
+ environment-variable copying is incomplete.
