[PATCH] rtlwifi: rtl8822b: fix a missing check of alloc_skb

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

 



__netdev_alloc_skb() return NULl when it fails. skb_put() further uses
it even when the allocation fails, leading to NULL pointer dereference.
The fix inserts a check for the return value of __netdev_alloc_skb().
