[078/152] net: packet: fix information leak to userland

From: Greg KH
Date: Wed Jan 05 2011 - 19:30:21 EST


2.6.36-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

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


From: Vasiliy Kulikov <segooon@xxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 67286640f638f5ad41a946b9a3dc75327950248f ]

packet_getname_spkt() doesn't initialize all members of sa_data field of
sockaddr struct if strlen(dev->name) < 13. This structure is then copied
to userland. It leads to leaking of contents of kernel stack memory.
We have to fully fill sa_data with strncpy() instead of strlcpy().

The same with packet_getname(): it doesn't initialize sll_pkttype field of
sockaddr_ll. Set it to zero.
