  vzkernel before 042stab080.2 in the OpenVZ modification for the Linux kernel

  users to obtain sensitive information from kernel stack memory via (1) a
  crafted ploop driver ioctl call, related to the ploop_getdevice_ioc function
  in drivers/block/ploop/dev.c or (2) a crafted quotactl system call, related
  to the compat_quotactl function in fs/quota/quota.c.
