Subject: [PATCH 6/7] xfrm_user: fix info leak in build_expire()
Date: Tue, 29 Aug 2017 12:31:33 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1504002694-1931-7-git-send-email-steffen.klassert@secunet.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1504002694-1931-1-git-send-email-steffen.klassert@secunet.com>
From: Mathias Krause <minipli@googlemail.com>
The memory reserved to dump the expired xfrm state includes padding
bytes in struct xfrm_user_expire added by the compiler for alignment. To
prevent the heap info leak, memset(0) the remainder of the struct.
Initializing the whole structure isn't needed as copy_to_user_state()
already takes care of clearing the padding bytes within the 'state'
member.
