[PATCH net 1/4] xfrm_user: fix info leak in copy_user_offload()

From: Mathias Krause <hidden>
Date: 2017-08-26 15:09:28
Subsystem: networking [general], networking [ipsec], the rest · Maintainers: "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Steffen Klassert, Herbert Xu, Linus Torvalds

The memory reserved to dump the xfrm offload state includes padding
bytes of struct xfrm_user_offload added by the compiler for alignment.
Add an explicit memset(0) before filling the buffer to avoid the heap
info leak.

Cc: Steffen Klassert <steffen.klassert@secunet.com>
Fixes: d77e38e612a0 ("xfrm: Add an IPsec hardware offloading API")
