I didn't try to trigger the double free, but it looks feasible. >From 864cc161ffaf6c08cb980e66a673b53ac5ea52ab Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jim Meyering <meyering@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon, 14 Dec 2009 14:34:29 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] virsh: avoid double-free * tools/virsh.c (vshCommandParse): Avoid double-free of "tkdata". Set it to NULL immediately after free in the (cmd == NULL) case, just as in the other case, in case the final free(tkdata) is triggered by a syntax error. --- tools/virsh.c | 1 + 1 files changed, 1 insertions(+), 0 deletions(-) diff --git a/tools/virsh.c b/tools/virsh.c index 62c1270..0312945 100644 --- a/tools/virsh.c +++ b/tools/virsh.c @@ -8044,6 +8044,7 @@ vshCommandParse(vshControl *ctl, char *cmdstr) goto syntaxError; /* ... or ignore this command only? */ } free(tkdata); + tkdata = NULL; } else if (tk == VSH_TK_OPTION) { if (!(opt = vshCmddefGetOption(cmd, tkdata))) { vshError(ctl, -- 1.6.6.rc2.275.g51e2d -- Libvir-list mailing list Libvir-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/libvir-list
