** Description changed:

- kernel info leak in tkill/tgkill
+ The do_tkill function in kernel/signal.c in the Linux kernel before
+ 3.8.9 does not initialize a certain data structure, which allows local
+ users to obtain sensitive information from kernel memory via a crafted
+ application that makes a (1) tkill or (2) tgkill system call.
  
  Break-Fix: - b9e146d8eb3b9ecae5086d373b50fa0c1f3e7f0f
