[PATCH] TPM: Avoid reference to potentially freed memory

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

 



Reference to the 'np' node is dropped before dereferencing the 'sizep' and
'basep' pointers, which could by then point to junk if the node has been
freed.

Refactor code to call 'of_node_pup' later.
