From fe10ae53384e48c51996941b7720ee16995cbcb7 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Vasiliy Kulikov Date: Wed, 10 Nov 2010 10:14:33 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] net: ax25: fix information leak to userland Sometimes ax25_getname() doesn't initialize all members of fsa_digipeater field of fsa struct, also the struct has padding bytes between sax25_call and sax25_ndigis fields. This structure is then copied to userland. It leads to leaking of contents of kernel stack memory. Signed-off-by: Vasiliy Kulikov Signed-off-by: David S.
