[PATCH] ima: Fix misuse of dereference of pointer in template_desc_init_fields()

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

 



The input parameter @fields is type of struct ima_template_field ***, so
when allocates array memory for @fields, the size of element should be
sizeof(**field) instead of sizeof(*field).

Actually the original code would not cause any runtime error, but it's
better to make it logically right.

Fixes: adf53a778a0a ("ima: new templates management mechanism")
