Severity CVSS v4.0:
Pending analysis

Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br /> <br /> net: sched: cls_api: fix tc_chain_fill_node to initialize tcm_info to zero to prevent an info-leak<br /> <br /> When building netlink messages, tc_chain_fill_node() never initializes<br /> the tcm_info field of struct tcmsg. Since the allocation is not zeroed,<br /> kernel heap memory is leaked to userspace through this 4-byte field.<br /> <br /> The fix simply zeroes tcm_info alongside the other fields that are<br /> already initialized.
