Subject: [PATCH] rds: fix an infoleak in rds_inc_info_copy
Date: Thu,  2 Jun 2016 04:11:20 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1464855080-29671-1-git-send-email-kjlu@gatech.edu> (raw)

The last field "flags" of object "minfo" is not initialized.
Copying this object out may leak kernel stack data.
Assign 0 to it to avoid leak.
