CVE-2010-3876

14
FAUCET Score

CVE-2010-3876 is a low-severity information disclosure vulnerability affecting the Linux kernel (before 2.6.37-rc2), specifically in the net/packet/af_packet.c component, and impacts distributions like Debian, openSUSE, and SUSE. It allows local users with CAP_NET_RAW capability to read sensitive kernel stack memory due to uninitialized structure members. The attack requires local access and medium complexity, with a potential impact of partial confidentiality loss. There is no evidence of active exploitation, public exploit code (Metasploit, Nuclei, ExploitDB), or significant community discussion or media coverage.
