In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: sched: act_connmark: initialize struct tc_ife to fix kernel leak
In tcf_connmark_dump(), the variable 'opt' was partially initialized using a
designatied initializer. While the padding bytes are reamined
uninitialized. nla_put() copies the entire structure into a
netlink message, these uninitialized bytes leaked to userspace.
Initialize the structure with memset before assigning its fields
to ensure all members and padding are cleared prior to beign copied.
