"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: sched: act_ife: initialize struct tc_ife to fix KMSAN kernel-
infoleak  Fix a KMSAN kernel-infoleak detected  by the syzbot .
[net?] KMSAN: kernel-infoleak in __skb_datagram_iter  In
tcf_ife_dump(), the variable 'opt' was partially initialized using a
designatied initializer. While the padding bytes are reamined
uninitialized. nla_put() copies the entire structure into a netlink
message, these uninitialized bytes leaked to userspace.  Initialize
the structure with memset before assigning its fields to ensure all
members and padding are cleared prior to beign copied.  This change
silences the KMSAN report and prevents potential information leaks
from the kernel memory.  This fix has been tested and validated by
syzbot. This patch closes the bug reported at the following syzkaller
link and ensures no infoleak.

This plugin only works with Tenable.ot.
