Subject: [PATCH] mtd: mtdchar: fix information leak to userland
Date: Sat, 06 Nov 2010 14:41:24 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1289054485-18190-1-git-send-email-segooon@gmail.com> (raw)

Structure mtd_info_user is copied to userland with padding byted
between "type" and "flags" fields uninitialized.  It leads to leaking
of contents of kernel stack memory.
