In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: qla2xxx: Zero-init bsg stack buffers to avoid info leak
Several bsg handlers stage their request/reply in an uninitialized 256-byte
on-stack buffer (uint8_t bsg[DMA_POOL_SIZE]) and fill it via
sg_copy_to_buffer(), which only copies as many bytes as the user-supplied
request payload. When the request is shorter than the structure, the
remainder of the buffer is left holding stale stack data.
qla2x00_read_fru_status() and qla2x00_read_i2c() then copy the full
structure back to the reply payload with sg_copy_from_buffer(), leaking the
uninitialized stack bytes to user space. The write/update paths do not copy
the buffer back, but can feed uninitialized fields to the device.
Zero the stack buffer at declaration in all five handlers, mirroring the
heap kzalloc() approach, so short requests can no longer expose stale
memory.
