[PATCH v3] ext4: fix memory leaks in ext4_fname_{setup_filename,prepare_lookup}

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

 



If the filename casefolding fails, we'll be leaking memory from the
fscrypt_name struct, namely from the 'crypto_buf.name' member.

Make sure we free it in the error path on both ext4_fname_setup_filename()
and ext4_fname_prepare_lookup() functions.

Fixes: 1ae98e295fa2 ("ext4: optimize match for casefolded encrypted dirs")

Changes since v2:
- Rephrased commit log to (hopefully!) make it more clear.
- Use ext4_fname_free_filename() instead of fscrypt_free_filename().
  Although not strictly needed, it cleans up the fname struct, removing a
  dangling pointer to freed memory.

Changes since v1:
- Include fix to ext4_fname_prepare_lookup() as well
- Add 'Fixes:' tag
