From 7e789223932762e1e7ffdb63f3fd1b42dbeeb789 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jarkko Sakkinen Date: Tue, 20 Jun 2017 11:38:02 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] tpm: fix a kernel memory leak in tpm-sysfs.c commit 13b47cfcfc60495cde216eef4c01040d76174cbe upstream. While cleaning up sysfs callback that prints EK we discovered a kernel memory leak. This commit fixes the issue by zeroing the buffer used for TPM command/response. The leak happen when we use either tpm_vtpm_proxy, tpm_ibmvtpm or xen-tpmfront.
