[PATCH 08/12] misc: fix potential segmentation fault problem in, scandir()

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

 



In scandir(), temp_list[num_dent] is allocated by calling
malloc(), we should check whether malloc() returns NULL before
accessing temp_list[num_dent].
