[PATCH] ACPI: pfr_telemetry: Fix info leak in pfrt_log_ioctl()

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The "data_info" struct is copied to the user.  It has a 4 byte struct
hole after the last struct member so we need to memset that to avoid
copying uninitialized stack data to the user.

When you're adding a new driver to the kernel then please use the new
driver's prefix instead of just the subsystem prefix.

 Bad: ACPI: Introduce Platform Firmware Runtime Telemetry driver
Good: ACPI / pfr_telemetry: Introduce Platform Firmware Runtime Telemetry driver

Otherwise it's just up to me to guess what prefix you wanted.
