The GPIO_GET_CHIPINFO_IOCTL handler allocates a gpiochip_info struct on the stack and then passes it to copy_to_user(). But depending on the length of the GPIO chip name and label the struct is only partially initialized. This exposes the previous, potentially sensitive, stack content to the issuing userspace application. To avoid this make sure that the struct is fully initialized.
