This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled ip: zero sockaddr returned on error queue
to the 3.14-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: ip-zero-sockaddr-returned-on-error-queue.patch and it can be found in the queue-3.14 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@vger.kernel.org> know about it. >From foo@baz Thu Feb 12 09:26:08 HKT 2015 From: Willem de Bruijn <will...@google.com> Date: Thu, 15 Jan 2015 13:18:40 -0500 Subject: ip: zero sockaddr returned on error queue From: Willem de Bruijn <will...@google.com> [ Upstream commit f812116b174e59a350acc8e4856213a166a91222 ] The sockaddr is returned in IP(V6)_RECVERR as part of errhdr. That structure is defined and allocated on the stack as struct { struct sock_extended_err ee; struct sockaddr_in(6) offender; } errhdr; The second part is only initialized for certain SO_EE_ORIGIN values. Always initialize it completely. An MTU exceeded error on a SOCK_RAW/IPPROTO_RAW is one example that would return uninitialized bytes. Signed-off-by: Willem de Bruijn <will...@google.com> ---- Also verified that there is no padding between errhdr.ee and errhdr.offender that could leak additional kernel data.
