Subject: [PATCH 2/2] apparmor: Fully initialize aa_perms struct when answering userspace query
Date: Fri,  6 Jul 2018 05:25:01 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1530854701-7348-3-git-send-email-tyhicks@canonical.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1530854701-7348-1-git-send-email-tyhicks@canonical.com>

Fully initialize the aa_perms struct in profile_query_cb() to avoid the
potential of using an uninitialized struct member's value in a response
to a query from userspace.

Detected by CoverityScan CID#1415126 ("Uninitialized scalar variable")

Fixes: 4f3b3f2d79a4 ("apparmor: add profile permission query ability")
