Not illegal - just impolite ! You should only pass on personal numbers etc - with their permission. It's just common sense ! You wouldn't like it if one of your friends gave someone your number - that you didn't know ! ~ In addition it actually depends on how you do this. If you are working for a company and are asked to provide another employees number to someone and that number is not a business number then in some situations you may breach "data protection".
