Detail

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

misc/vmw_vmci: fix an infoleak in vmci_host_do_receive_datagram()

`struct vmci_event_qp` allocated by qp_notify_peer() contains padding, which may carry uninitialized data to the userspace, as observed by KMSAN:

Use memset() to prevent the infoleaks.

Also speculatively fix qp_notify_peer_local(), which may suffer from the same problem.
