[PATCH 6.5 124/241] wifi: cfg80211: avoid leaking stack data into trace

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

 



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

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

From: Benjamin Berg <benjamin.berg@xxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 334bf33eec5701a1e4e967bcb7cc8611a998334b ]

If the structure is not initialized then boolean types might be copied
into the tracing data without being initialised. This causes data from
the stack to leak into the trace and also triggers a UBSAN failure which
can easily be avoided here.
