+Description: 
+ The copy_from_user function in the uaccess code in Linux kernel 2.6
+ before 2.6.19-rc1, when running on s390, does not properly clear a
+ kernel buffer, which allows local user space programs to read
+ portions of kernel memory by "appending to a file from a bad
+ address," which triggers a fault that prevents the unused memory from
+ being cleared in the kernel buffer.
