[patch added to 3.12-stable] MIPS: traps: Fix SIGFPE information leak from `do_ov' and `do_trap_or_bp'

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

 



From: "Maciej W. Rozycki" <macro@xxxxxxxxxx>

This patch has been added to the 3.12 stable tree. If you have any
objections, please let us know.

===============

commit e723e3f7f9591b79e8c56b3d7c5a204a9c571b55 upstream.

Avoid sending a partially initialised `siginfo_t' structure along SIGFPE
signals issued from `do_ov' and `do_trap_or_bp', leading to information
leaking from the kernel stack.
