Component INIT_STACK_ALL_ZERO

Component Type: kbuild config

Description: zero-init everything (strongest and safest)

More info: Initializes everything on the stack (including padding) with a zero value. This is intended to eliminate all classes of uninitialized stack variable exploits and information exposures, even variables that were warned about having been left uninitialized. Zero initialization provides safe defaults for strings (immediately NUL-terminated), pointers (NULL), indices (index 0), and sizes (0 length), so it is therefore more suitable as a production security mitigation than pattern initialization.

Build project: Kconfig (Linux kconfig) (Path: security\Kconfig )
