[Linux-kernel-mentees] [PATCH v2] block/scsi-ioctl: Prevent kernel-infoleak in scsi_put_cdrom_generic_arg()

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

 



scsi_put_cdrom_generic_arg() is copying uninitialized stack memory to
userspace due to the compiler not initializing holes in statically
allocated structures. Fix it by adding a padding field to `struct
compat_cdrom_generic_command`.

Change in v2:
    - Add a padding field to `struct compat_cdrom_generic_command`,
      instead of doing memset() on `cgc32`. (Suggested by Jens Axboe
      <axboe@xxxxxxxxx>)
