[PATCH 3.2 09/79] hamradio/yam: fix info leak in ioctl

From: Ben Hutchings
Date: Wed Feb 12 2014 - 03:39:45 EST


3.2.55-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Salva Peirà <speiro@xxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 8e3fbf870481eb53b2d3a322d1fc395ad8b367ed ]

The yam_ioctl() code fails to initialise the cmd field
of the struct yamdrv_ioctl_cfg. Add an explicit memset(0)
before filling the structure to avoid the 4-byte info leak.
