Al, Jan, this patch set fixes info leaks in isofs and udf. Both file systems fail to initialize all bytes of the f_handle byte array when creating a handle for a path pointing to a directory. This memory gets copied to userland and that for is a leak of uninitialized heap data to userland that should be fixed.
This info leak can be triggered locally by using the name_to_handle_at() syscall.
