+Subject: md: use kzalloc() when bitmap is disabled
+
+From: Benjamin Randazzo <benjamin@randazzo.fr>
+
+commit b6878d9e03043695dbf3fa1caa6dfc09db225b16 upstream.
+
+In drivers/md/md.c get_bitmap_file() uses kmalloc() for creating a
+mdu_bitmap_file_t called "file".
+
+5769         file = kmalloc(sizeof(*file), GFP_NOIO);
+5770         if (!file)
+5771                 return -ENOMEM;
+
+This structure is copied to user space at the end of the function.
+
+5786         if (err == 0 &&
+5787             copy_to_user(arg, file, sizeof(*file)))
+5788                 err = -EFAULT
+
+But if bitmap is disabled only the first byte of "file" is initialized
+with zero, so it's possible to read some bytes (up to 4095) of kernel
+space memory from user space. This is an information leak.
+
+5775         /* bitmap disabled, zero the first byte and copy out */
+5776         if (!mddev->bitmap_info.file)
+5777                 file->pathname[0] = '\0';
