From e8e3fcbc66f608d38a72fc716ff45e31b7f3d123 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Takashi Iwai Date: Mon, 3 Sep 2018 15:16:43 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] ALSA: rawmidi: Initialize allocated buffers commit 5a7b44a8df822e0667fc76ed7130252523993bda upstream. syzbot reported the uninitialized value exposure in certain situations using virmidi loop. It's likely a very small race at writing and reading, and the influence is almost negligible. But it's safer to paper over this just by replacing the existing kvmalloc() with kvzalloc().
