From: Alexander Potapenko <glider@xxxxxxxxxx> commit fd2c83b35752f0a8236b976978ad4658df14a59f upstream. In the case getsockopt() is called with PACKET_HDRLEN and optlen < 4 |val| remains uninitialized and the syscall may behave differently depending on its value, and even copy garbage to userspace on certain architectures. To fix this we now return -EINVAL if optlen is too small. This bug has been detected with KMSAN. Signed-off-by: Alexander Potapenko <glider@xxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: David S.
