[PATCH] dm crypt: fix free of bad values after tfm allocation failure

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

 



If crypt_alloc_tfms() had to allocate multiple tfms and it failed before
the last allocation, then it would call crypt_free_tfms() and free
pointers from uninitialized memory.  Fix by allocating zeroed memory.
