Hash: SHA1

> Linux kernel built with the NetFilter Connection Tracking(NF_CONNTRACK)
> support for IRC protocol(NF_NAT_IRC), is vulnerable to an information leakage
> flaw. It could occur when communicating over direct client-to-client IRC
> connection(/dcc) via a NAT-ed network. Kernel attempts to mangle IRC TCP
> packet's content, wherein an uninitialised 'buffer' object is copied to a
> socket buffer and sent over to the other end of a connection.
