[PATCH] cifs: do not use uninitialized data in the owner/group sid

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

 



When idsfromsid is used we create a special SID for owner/group.
This structure must be initialized or else the first 5 bytes
of the Authority field of the SID will contain uninitialized data
and thus not be a valid SID.
