[PATCH v2] RDMA/ucma: RDMA/ucma: fix a kernel-infoleak in ucma_init_qp_attr()

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

 



From: Haimin Zhang <tcs.kernel@xxxxxxxxx>

The ib_copy_ah_attr_to_user() function only initializes "resp.grh" if
the "resp.is_global" flag is set.  Unfortunately, this data is copied to
the user and copying uninitialized stack data to the user is an
information leak.  Zero out the whole "resp" struct to be safe.

As a clean up, zero out both "resp" and "qp_attr" in the initializers.

[ This patch has been highly edited from the original that Haimin Zhang
  sent, so if there are any complaints please blame Dan Carpenter and
  Leon Romanovsky ]
