KVM: x86: fix information leak to userland
commit 97e69aa62f8b5d338d6cff49be09e37cc1262838 upstream. Structures kvm_vcpu_events, kvm_debugregs, kvm_pit_state2 and kvm_clock_data are copied to userland with some padding and reserved fields unitialized. It leads to leaking of contents of kernel stack memory. We have to initialize them to zero. In patch v1 Jan Kiszka suggested to fill reserved fields with zeros instead of memset'ting the whole struct. It makes sense as these fields are explicitly marked as padding. No more fields need zeroing. Signed-off-by: Vasiliy Kulikov <segooon@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Marcelo Tosatti <mtosatti@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
