[net-next] can: etas_es58x: fix null pointer dereference when handling error frames

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

 



From: Vincent Mailhol <mailhol.vincent@xxxxxxxxxx>

During the handling of CAN bus errors, a CAN error SKB is allocated
using alloc_can_err_skb(). Even if the allocation of the SKB fails,
the function continues in order to do the stats handling.

All access to the can_frame pointer (cf) should be guarded by an if
statement:
	if (cf)

However, the increment of the rx_bytes stats:
	netdev->stats.rx_bytes += cf->can_dlc;
dereferences the cf pointer and was not guarded by an if condition
leading to a NULL pointer dereference if the can_err_skb() function
failed.

Replacing the cf->can_dlc by the macro CAN_ERR_DLC (which is the
length of any CAN error frames) solves this NULL pointer dereference.
