In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

inet_diag: fix kernel-infoleak for UDP sockets

KMSAN reported a kernel-infoleak [1], that can exploited by unpriv users.

After analysis it turned out UDP was not initializing r->idiagexpires. Other users of inetskdiagfill() might make the same mistake in the future, so fix this in inetskdiag_fill().
