Subject: [backport request] netfilter: ipt_ULOG: fix info leaks
Hi,
I mistakenly sent this request to the stable list before being made
aware that it belonged here. Sorry to anyone reading this for the
second time.
I'd like to request that the commit below is backported to stable. The
commit fixes an old memory disclosure issue, and has already spent
some time in mainline.
Thanks!

Subject: [PATCH] netfilter: ipt_ULOG: fix info leaks
The ulog messages leak heap bytes by the means of padding bytes and
incompletely filled string arrays. Fix those by memset(0)'ing the
whole struct before filling it.
