[PATCH] ksmbd: missing check for NULL in convert_to_nt_pathname()

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

 



The kmalloc() does not have a NULL check.  This code can be re-written
slightly cleaner to just use the kstrdup().

Fixes: 265fd1991c1d ("ksmbd: use LOOKUP_BENEATH to prevent the out of share access")
