From 7b789836f434c87168eab067cfbed1ec4783dffd Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mathias Krause Date: Wed, 19 Sep 2012 11:33:40 +0000 Subject: xfrm_user: fix info leak in copy_to_user_policy() The memory reserved to dump the xfrm policy includes multiple padding bytes added by the compiler for alignment (padding bytes in struct xfrm_selector and struct xfrm_userpolicy_info). Add an explicit memset(0) before filling the buffer to avoid the heap info leak. Signed-off-by: Mathias Krause Acked-by: Steffen Klassert Signed-off-by: David S.
