[patch] crypto: keywrap - memzero the correct memory

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

 



We're clearing the wrong memory.  The memory corruption is likely
harmless because we weren't going to use that stack memory again but not
zeroing is a potential information leak.
