Subject[PATCH 2/6] xfrm_user: fix info leak in copy_to_user_state()
Date
The memory reserved to dump the xfrm state includes the padding bytes of
struct xfrm_usersa_info added by the compiler for alignment (7 for
amd64, 3 for i386). Add an explicit memset(0) before filling the buffer
to avoid the info leak.
