CVE-2014-1445 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2014-1445):
  The wanxl_ioctl function in drivers/net/wan/wanxl.c in the Linux kernel
  before 3.11.7 does not properly initialize a certain data structure, which
  allows local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel memory via an
  ioctl call.
