[PATCH v2] x86: kvm: fix information leak to userland

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

 



Structure kvm_ppc_pvinfo is copied to userland with pad field
unitialized.  Structure kvm_clock_data is copied to userland with
flags and pad fields unitialized.  It leads to leaking of contents
of kernel stack memory.

 I cannot compile this driver, so it is not tested at all.

 As it is not compilable, I've missed and typed wrong var name in v1, sorry.
