[PATCH] dma-buf/udmabuf: Fix NULL pointer dereference in udmabuf_create

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

 



There is a potential execution path in which pointer memfd is NULL when
passed as argument to fput(), hence there is a NULL pointer dereference
in fput().

Fix this by null checking *memfd* before calling fput().

Fixes: fbb0de795078 ("Add udmabuf misc device")
