+Subject: drivers/cdrom/cdrom.c: use kzalloc() for failing hardware
+
+In drivers/cdrom/cdrom.c mmc_ioctl_cdrom_read_data() allocates a memory
+area with kmalloc in line 2885.
+
+2885 cgc->buffer = kmalloc(blocksize, GFP_KERNEL);
+2886 if (cgc->buffer == NULL)
+2887 return -ENOMEM;
+
+In line 2908 we can find the copy_to_user function:
+
+2908 if (!ret && copy_to_user(arg, cgc->buffer, blocksize))
+
+The cgc->buffer is never cleaned and initialized before this function. If
+ret = 0 with the previous basic block, it's possible to display some
+memory bytes in kernel space from userspace.
+
+When we read a block from the disk it normally fills the ->buffer but if
+the drive is malfunctioning there is a chance that it would only be
+partially filled. The result is an leak information to userspace.
