+Subject: [PATCH] vhost: fix info leak due to uninitialized memory
+
+CVE-2018-1118
+
+struct vhost_msg within struct vhost_msg_node is copied to userspace.
+Unfortunately it turns out on 64 bit systems vhost_msg has padding after
+type which gcc doesn't initialize, leaking 4 uninitialized bytes to
+userspace.
+
+This padding also unfortunately means 32 bit users of this interface are
+broken on a 64 bit kernel which will need to be fixed separately.
+
+Fixes: CVE-2018-1118
