From 162d549c6905485262635fe594db337efb2828b5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Sven Eckelmann Date: Thu, 28 Jun 2012 11:56:52 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] batman-adv: Don't leak information through uninitialized packet fields The reserved fields in batman-adv packets are not set to a constant value. The content of these memory regions is leaked unintentionally to the network.
