Linux <= 2.6.37-rc1 serial_multiport_struct Info Leak Exploit
This exploit is used to leak information from the Linux kernel version 2.6.37-rc1 serial_multiport_struct. It uses the TIOCGICOUNT ioctl to read the reserved field of the serial_multiport_struct structure and write it to a file. The exploit takes two arguments, the name of the file to write the leaked information to and the size of the reserved field.
Mitigation:
Upgrade to a newer version of the Linux kernel.
