CVE: CVE-2022-49788
Component: kernel
CWE: CWE-401
Severity: Moderate
CVSS v3: 7.2/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:H

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.
