From 177f25d1292c7e16e1199b39c85480f7f8815552 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jiri Kosina Date: Tue, 29 Oct 2024 15:44:35 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] HID: core: zero-initialize the report buffer MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Since the report buffer is used by all kinds of drivers in various ways, let's zero-initialize it during allocation to make sure that it can't be ever used to leak kernel memory via specially-crafted report.
