[PATCH 4.9 20/64] security/keys: properly zero out sensitive key material in big_key

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

 



4.9-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Jason A. Donenfeld <Jason@xxxxxxxxx>

commit 910801809b2e40a4baedd080ef5d80b4a180e70e upstream.

Error paths forgot to zero out sensitive material, so this patch changes
some kfrees into a kzfrees.
