[PATCH] Ceph: Fix use-after-free bug in ceph_messenger_destroy()

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

 



Hi,

In net/ceph/messenger.c::ceph_messenger_destroy() the pointer 'msgr' is 
freed by kfree() and subsequently used in a call to dout() - use after 
free bug.
Easily fixed by simply moving the kfree() call after the dout() call.
