[PATCH] ocfs2: Fix a use after free on error

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

 



The error handling in this function frees "reg" but it is still on the
"o2hb_all_regions" list so it will lead to a use after free.  The fix
for this is to only add it to the list after everything has succeeded.
