Bug description:
  The copy_to_user_auth function in net/xfrm/xfrm_user.c in the Linux
  kernel before 3.6 uses an incorrect C library function for copying a
  string, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information from
  kernel heap memory by leveraging the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability.

  Break-Fix: 4447bb33f09444920a8f1d89e1540137429351b6
