macOS - 'sysctl_vfs_generic_conf' Stack Leak Through Struct Padding

/*
The sysctls vfs.generic.conf.* are handled by sysctl_vfs_generic_conf(), which is implemented as follows:

static int
sysctl_vfs_generic_conf SYSCTL_HANDLER_ARGS
{
        int *name, namelen;
        struct vfstable *vfsp;
        struct vfsconf vfsc;
        
        (void)oidp;
        name = arg1;
        namelen = arg2;
        
        [check for namelen==1]
                        
        mount_list_lock();
        for (vfsp = vfsconf; vfsp; vfsp = vfsp->vfc_next)
                if (vfsp->vfc_typenum == name[0])
                        break;
        
        if (vfsp == NULL) {
                mount_list_unlock();
                return (ENOTSUP);
        }
                        
        vfsc.vfc_reserved1 = 0;
        bcopy(vfsp->vfc_name, vfsc.vfc_name, sizeof(vfsc.vfc_name));
        vfsc.vfc_typenum = vfsp->vfc_typenum;
        vfsc.vfc_refcount = vfsp->vfc_refcount;
        vfsc.vfc_flags = vfsp->vfc_flags;
        vfsc.vfc_reserved2 = 0;
        vfsc.vfc_reserved3 = 0;
                        
        mount_list_unlock();
        return (SYSCTL_OUT(req, &vfsc, sizeof(struct vfsconf)));
}

`struct vfsconf` is defined as follows:

struct vfsconf {
        uint32_t vfc_reserved1;         /* opaque 
        char    vfc_name[MFSNAMELEN];   /* filesystem type name 
        int     vfc_typenum;            /* historic filesystem type number 
        int     vfc_refcount;           /* number mounted of this type 
        int     vfc_flags;              /* permanent flags 
        uint32_t vfc_reserved2;         /* opaque 
        uint32_t vfc_reserved3;         /* opaque 
};

`MFSNAMELEN` is defined as follows:

#define MFSNAMELEN      15      /* length of fs type name, not inc. null 
#define MFSTYPENAMELEN  16      /* length of fs type name including null 

This means that one byte of uninitialized padding exists between `vfc_name` and `vfc_typenum`.


This issue was discovered using an AFL-based fuzzer, loosely based on TriforceAFL. This is the diff of two runs over the fuzzer queue with different stack poison values (0xcc and 0xdd):
