** Description changed:

- memory disclosure to ethernet due to unchecked scatter/gather IO
+ The atl2_probe function in drivers/net/ethernet/atheros/atlx/atl2.c in
+ the Linux kernel through 4.5.2 incorrectly enables scatter/gather I/O,
+ which allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information from
+ kernel memory by reading packet data.
