Subject: compat: fix 4-byte infoleak via uninitialized struct field
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=ef7c4825fe5fe9ed251bda8d4c04d47fe33c3afb;p=GitHub%2Fmoto-9609%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git

compat: fix 4-byte infoleak via uninitialized struct field

commit 0a0b98734479aa5b3c671d5190e86273372cab95 upstream.

Commit 3a4d44b61625 ("ntp: Move adjtimex related compat syscalls to
native counterparts") removed the memset() in compat_get_timex().  Since
then, the compat adjtimex syscall can invoke do_adjtimex() with an
uninitialized ->tai.

If do_adjtimex() doesn't write to ->tai (e.g.  because the arguments are
invalid), compat_put_timex() then copies the uninitialized ->tai field
to userspace.

Fix it by adding the memset() back.
