From a5968ba7d2888a4bab3bad8ce921a898be30ab34 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dan Rosenberg Date: Tue, 25 Jan 2011 14:08:48 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] V4L/DVB: ivtvfb: prevent reading uninitialized stack memory, CVE-2010-4079 CVE-2010-4079 BugLink: http://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/707649 Released by: 2.6.32.y stable upstream The FBIOGET_VBLANK device ioctl allows unprivileged users to read 16 bytes of uninitialized stack memory, because the "reserved" member of the fb_vblank struct declared on the stack is not altered or zeroed before being copied back to the user. This patch takes care of it.
