[PATCH] RDMA/nes: do not leak uninitialized resp.reserved to userspace

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

 



From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

resp.reserved has not been initialized and so the copy_to_user (via
ib_copy_to_udata) is copying uninitialized data from the stack back
to user space which is a potential information leak. Fix this by
setting resp.reserved to zero.

Fixes: 3c2d774cad5b ("RDMA/nes: Add a driver for NetEffect RNICs")
