Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

- In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: inet_diag: Initialize pad field in
struct inet_diag_req_v2 KMSAN reported uninit-value access in raw_lookup() [1]. Diag for raw sockets uses
the pad field in struct inet_diag_req_v2 for the underlying protocol. This field corresponds to the
sdiag_raw_protocol field in struct inet_diag_req_raw. inet_diag_get_exact_compat() converts inet_diag_req
to inet_diag_req_v2, but leaves the pad field uninitialized. So the issue occurs when raw_lookup()
accesses the sdiag_raw_protocol field. Fix this by initializing the pad field in
inet_diag_get_exact_compat(). Also, do the same fix in inet_diag_dump_compat() to avoid the similar issue
in the future. [1] BUG: KMSAN: uninit-value in raw_lookup net/ipv4/raw_diag.c:49 [inline] BUG: KMSAN:
