ip: zero sockaddr returned on error queue
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 <willemb@google.com> ---- Also verified that there is no padding between errhdr.ee and errhdr.offender that could leak additional kernel data. Acked-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
