From 26d560eb8ee3e6dd505a5a8a43ff904c279f60ce Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mathias Krause Date: Wed, 19 Sep 2012 11:33:41 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] xfrm_user: fix info leak in copy_to_user_tmpl() [ Upstream commit 1f86840f897717f86d523a13e99a447e6a5d2fa5 ] The memory used for the template copy is a local stack variable. As struct xfrm_user_tmpl contains multiple holes added by the compiler for alignment, not initializing the memory will lead to leaking stack bytes to userland. Add an explicit memset(0) to avoid the info leak. Initial version of the patch by Brad Spengler. Cc: Brad Spengler Signed-off-by: Mathias Krause Acked-by: Steffen Klassert Signed-off-by: David S.
