[PATCH 62/81] net: sctp: sctp_endpoint_free: zero out secret key data

From: Herton Ronaldo Krzesinski
Date: Tue Feb 19 2013 - 14:01:27 EST


3.5.7.6 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Daniel Borkmann <dborkman@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit b5c37fe6e24eec194bb29d22fdd55d73bcc709bf upstream.

On sctp_endpoint_destroy, previously used sensitive keying material
should be zeroed out before the memory is returned, as we already do
with e.g. auth keys when released.
