[PATCH] mt76: mt7915: fix a couple information leaks

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

 



Unfortunately this code has stumbled into some deep C standards
nonsense.  These two structs have a 3 byte struct hole at the end.  If
you partially initialize a struct then the C standard specifies that
all the struct holes are zeroed out.  But when you initialize all the
members of the struct, as this code does, then struct holes may be left
with uninitialized stack data.  This is from C11 section 6.7.9 and how
it is implemented in GCC.

Anyway, add some memsets to prevent exposing uninitialized stack data
with the user.  Debugfs is root only so the real life impact of these
leaks is very small.
