From: Julia Lawall <julia@xxxxxxx> On some failures, the country_code field of an acm structure is freed without freeing the acm structure itself. Elsewhere, operations including memcpy and kfree are performed on the country_code field. The patch sets the country_code field to NULL when it is freed, and likewise sets the country_code_size field to 0. Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall <julia@xxxxxxx> --- Only compile tested. The second goto skip_countries serves no purpose, but is perhaps useful from a readability point of view. drivers/usb/class/cdc-acm.c | 4 ++++ 1 file changed, 4 insertions(+) diff --git a/drivers/usb/class/cdc-acm.c b/drivers/usb/class/cdc-acm.c index f30fbff..9543b19 100644 --- a/drivers/usb/class/cdc-acm.c +++ b/drivers/usb/class/cdc-acm.c @@ -1230,6 +1230,8 @@ made_compressed_probe: i = device_create_file(&intf->dev, &dev_attr_wCountryCodes); if (i < 0) { kfree(acm->country_codes); + acm->country_codes = NULL; + acm->country_code_size = 0; goto skip_countries; } @@ -1238,6 +1240,8 @@ made_compressed_probe: if (i < 0) { device_remove_file(&intf->dev, &dev_attr_wCountryCodes); kfree(acm->country_codes); + acm->country_codes = NULL; + acm->country_code_size = 0; goto skip_countries; } } -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kernel-janitors" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
