[PATCH 1/1] media: video/cx18, fix potential null dereference

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

 



Stanse found a potential null dereference in cx18_dvb_start_feed
and cx18_dvb_stop_feed. There is a check for stream being NULL,
but it is dereferenced earlier. Move the dereference after the
check.
