[152/251] fanotify: info leak in copy_event_to_user()

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

 



3.6.11.9-rc1 stable review patch.
If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@xxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit de1e0c40aceb9d5bff09c3a3b97b2f1b178af53f ]

The ->reserved field isn't cleared so we leak one byte of stack
information to userspace.
