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

From: Salva Peiró <hidden>
Date: 2013-12-13 08:06:34
Also in: linux-hams, lkml, stable
Subsystem: networking drivers, the rest · Maintainers: Andrew Lunn, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds

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.
