Subject: [GIT PULL] viafb security fix
Date: Thu, 16 Sep 2010 02:20:10 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4C9162BA.6000307@gmx.de> (raw)

Hi Linus,

please pull a viafb security fix from:

   git://github.com/schandinat/linux-2.6.git 2.6.36-fixes

It contains a single patch to initialize the memory before it is copied to 
userspace. As this issue could be a security flaw it would be good to have this 
patch in the next release.


Thanks,

Florian Tobias Schandinat
