commite186fa1c05upstream. In __cld_pipe_inprogress_downcall(), the get_user() that reads princhashlen from the userspace cld_msg_v2 buffer does not check its return value. A failing copy leaves princhashlen with uninitialised stack contents, which are then used to drive memdup_user() and stored as princhash.len on the resulting reclaim record. The other get_user() calls in this function all check the return; only this one is missed, which is most likely a copy-paste oversight from when v2 upcalls were introduced. Mirror the existing pattern used a few lines above for namelen. namecopy is declared with __free(kfree) so the early return cleans up the already-allocated buffer automatically.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
