From 88f8a5e3e7defccd3925cabb1ee4d3994e5cdb52 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Kulikov Vasiliy Date: Sun, 31 Oct 2010 07:10:32 +0000 Subject: net: tipc: fix information leak to userland Structure sockaddr_tipc is copied to userland with padding bytes after "id" field in union field "name" unitialized. It leads to leaking of contents of kernel stack memory. We have to initialize them to zero. Signed-off-by: Vasiliy Kulikov Signed-off-by: David S.
