[ 084/184] xfrm_user: fix info leak in copy_to_user_state()

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

 



2.6.32-longterm review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Mathias Krause <minipli@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit f778a636713a435d3a922c60b1622a91136560c1 ]

The memory reserved to dump the xfrm state includes the padding bytes of
struct xfrm_usersa_info added by the compiler for alignment (7 for
amd64, 3 for i386). Add an explicit memset(0) before filling the buffer
to avoid the info leak.
