[PATCH net 2/4] xfrm_user: fix info leak in xfrm_notify_sa()

From: Mathias Krause <hidden>
Date: 2017-08-26 15:09:29
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 ID of the xfrm state includes a padding
byte in struct xfrm_usersa_id added by the compiler for alignment. To
prevent the heap info leak, memset(0) the whole struct before filling
it.

Cc: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
Fixes: 0603eac0d6b7 ("[IPSEC]: Add XFRMA_SA/XFRMA_POLICY for delete notification")
