CVE-2026-98935

NONE Gepubliceerd:

Beschrijving NL

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

rtc: dev: zero-initialize struct rtc_wkalrm to prevent information leak

The struct rtc_wkalrm has padding holes after the 'pending' member. When returned to userspace via the RTC_WKALRM_RD ioctl, uninitialized
kernel stack data residing in these holes may be leaked. Zero-initialize the struct at declaration to eliminate this information
leak risk. Fixes smatch warnings:
- drivers/rtc/dev.c:392 rtc_dev_ioctl() warn: check that 'alarm' doesn't
leak information (struct has a hole after 'pending')
