Subject: [PATCH] batman-adv: Avoid probe ELP information leak
|
|
|
|
The probe ELPs for WiFi interfaces are expanded to contain at least
|
|
BATADV_ELP_MIN_PROBE_SIZE bytes. This is usually a lot more than the
|
|
number of bytes which the template ELP packet requires.
|
|
|
|
These extra padding bytes were not initialized and thus could contain data
|
|
which were previously stored at the same location. It is therefore required
|
|
to set it to some predefined or random values to avoid leaking private
|
|
information from the system transmitting these kind of packets.
|
|
|
|
Fixes: bedcadfaa92b ("batman-adv: ELP - send unicast ELP packets for throughput sampling")
