[ 15/84] xfrm_user: fix info leak in copy_to_user_state()

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Wed Oct 10 2012 - 22:24:18 EST


3.0-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

From: Mathias Krause <minipli@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit f778a636713a435d3a922c60b1622a91136560c1 ]

The memory reserved to dump the xfrm state includes the padding bytes of
struct xfrm_usersa_info added by the compiler for alignment (7 for
amd64, 3 for i386). Add an explicit memset(0) before filling the buffer
to avoid the info leak.
