  "summary": "net: bridge: mrp: fix uninitialised bytes on the wire",
  "details": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nnet: bridge: mrp: fix uninitialised bytes on the wire\n\nbr_mrp_alloc_test_skb() builds MRP test frames on an skb from\ndev_alloc_skb(), which does not clear the linear data area.  On the MRA\nring-role branch the sub-option TLV header is appended with\n\n\tsub_tlv = skb_put(skb, sizeof(*sub_tlv));\n\tsub_tlv->type = BR_MRP_SUB_TLV_HEADER_TEST_AUTO_MGR;\n\nso sub_tlv->length is never written, and the two trailing alignment bytes\nare appended with a bare skb_put() that does not clear them either.  The\nneighbouring oui and sub_opt regions are explicitly zeroed, so three\nuninitialised bytes are left in every MRA MRP_Test frame that goes out.\n\nPut the sub-option TLV header and the alignment padding in a single\nskb_put_zero(), which clears both.  The AUTO_MGR sub-TLV carries no\npayload, so the zeroed length field is already the value it should have.",
