Subject: [PATCH 3.14.y 5/9] USB: usbfs: fix potential infoleak in devio
Date: Mon, 18 Jul 2016 16:53:19 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1468875203-10816-5-git-send-email-ciwillia@brocade.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1468875203-10816-1-git-send-email-ciwillia@brocade.com>

From: Kangjie Lu <kangjielu@gmail.com>

commit 681fef8380eb818c0b845fca5d2ab1dcbab114ee upstream.

The stack object “ci” has a total size of 8 bytes. Its last 3 bytes
are padding bytes which are not initialized and leaked to userland
via “copy_to_user”.

CVE-2016-4482
