I don't think we care very much about bugs in the livepatching elf parser. The livepatches are all completely trusted in any case. Furthermore, I don't think we consider the binary code or pieces of the headers or bits of the livepatching loader tools memory map or anything secret. So uninitialised structure bugs just leak things we don't care about. Does that make sense ?
