FUSE Local Information Disclosure Vulnerability

FUSE is susceptible to a local information disclosure vulnerability. This issue is due to a failure of the kernel module to properly clear used memory prior to its reuse.

This vulnerability allows malicious local users to gain access to potentially sensitive kernel memory, aiding them in further attacks.

FUSE versions 2.2, 2.2.1, 2.3-pre*, and 2.3-rc1, running on Linux kernel versions 2.4, through 2.6 are affected by this issue.
