[PATCH] [v2] evm: Fix memleak in init_desc

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

 



When kmalloc() fails, tmp_tfm allocated by
crypto_alloc_shash() has not been freed, which
leads to memleak.

Fixes: d46eb3699502b ("evm: crypto hash replaced by shash")
Signed-off-by: Dinghao Liu <dinghao.liu@xxxxxxxxxx>

Changelog:

v2: - Remove checks against tmp_tfm before freeing.
