Lizhi Xu bfd6b211fe vmci: Prevent the dispatching of uninitialized payloads 
[ Upstream commit bfb4cf9fb9 ]

The reproducer executes the host's unlocked_ioctl call in two different
tasks. When init_context fails, the struct vmci_event_ctx is not fully
initialized when executing vmci_datagram_dispatch() to send events to all
vm contexts. This affects the datagram taken from the datagram queue of
its context by another task, because the datagram payload is not initialized
according to the size payload_size, which causes the kernel data to leak
to the user space.

Before dispatching the datagram, and before setting the payload content,
explicitly set the payload content to 0 to avoid data leakage caused by
incomplete payload initialization.

Fixes: 28d6692cd8 ("VMCI: context implementation.")

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
