[PATCH 3.11 196/198] netfilter: ipt_ULOG: fix info leaks

[Luis Henriques]

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

------------------

From: Mathias Krause <minipli@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 278f2b3e2af5f32ea1afe34fa12a2518153e6e49 upstream.

The ulog messages leak heap bytes by the means of padding bytes and
incompletely filled string arrays. Fix those by memset(0)'ing the
whole struct before filling it.
