Subject: [PATCH] tracing/user_events: Don't use %pK through printk
Date: Mon, 17 Feb 2025 14:16:12 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250217-restricted-pointers-trace-v1-1-bbe9ea279848@linutronix.de> (raw)
Restricted pointers ("%pK") are not meant to be used through printk().
It can unintentionally expose security sensitive, raw pointer values.
Use regular pointer formatting instead.
