[PATCH AUTOSEL 4.9 58/60] media: ttusb-dec: Fix info-leak in ttusb_dec_send_command()

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

 



From: Tomas Bortoli <tomasbortoli@xxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit a10feaf8c464c3f9cfdd3a8a7ce17e1c0d498da1 ]

The function at issue does not always initialize each byte allocated
for 'b' and can therefore leak uninitialized memory to a USB device in
the call to usb_bulk_msg()

Use kzalloc() instead of kmalloc()
