[libvirt-glib 2/2] Fix potential crashes in error cases

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



fetch_list implementations in libvirt-gobject-connection.c and
libvirt-gobject-storage-pool.c can misbehave in error situations
or when the call is cancelled:
- when the call is cancelled, 'lst' will be NULL and 'n' non-0 so
we'll try to iterate over 'lst', which will cause a crash
- when list_func fails, 'lst' is likely to be uninitialized, which
will lead to invalid frees in the memory cleanup in the error: branch.
We can avoid this issue by making sure 'lst' is initialized to 0
when it's created.
