Solaris fifofs I_PEEK Kernel Memory Leak
------------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY
An integer signedness error in FIFO filesystems (named pipes) on Sun
Solaris 8 through 10 allows local users to read the contents of
unspecified memory locations via a negative value to the I_PEEK ioctl.
DETAILS
Vulnerable Systems (SPARC):
* Solaris 8 without patch 109454-06 [tested]
* Solaris 9 without patch 117471-04 [tested]
* Solaris 10 without patch 127737-01 [tested]
Vulnerable Systems (x86):
* Solaris 8 without patch 109455-06 [untested]
* Solaris 9 without patch 117472-04 [untested]
* Solaris 10 without patch 127738-01 [untested]
