[PATCH] ima: fix a possible null pointer dereference

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

 



In restore_template_fmt(), template_desc->fmt will be NULL if kstrdup
fails, but the return value of restore_template_fmt() will not be null,
then in ima_restore_measurement_list(), template_desc->fmt will continue
to be used in below logic:
  |-- restore_template_fmt(...);	<-- template_desc->fmt = NULL
  |-- ret = template_desc_init_fields(template_desc->fmt,
				      &(template_desc->fields),
				      &(template_desc->num_fields));
    |-- template_num_fields = template_fmt_size(template_fmt);
      |--int template_fmt_len = strlen(template_fmt); <-- null-pre-def

So we need return NULL and free template_desc's memory if kstrdup fails
to fix it.
