Descriptions

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

nbd: always initialize struct msghdr completely

syzbot complains that msg->msg_get_inq value can be uninitialized [1]

struct msghdr got many new fields recently, we should always make
sure their values is zero by default.

En el kernel de Linux, se ha resuelto la siguiente vulnerabilidad: nbd: siempre inicializa completamente la estructura msghdr syzbot se queja de que el valor msg->msg_get_inq puede no estar inicializado [1] la estructura msghdr obtuvo muchos campos nuevos recientemente, siempre debemos asegurarnos de que sus valores sean cero por defecto.
