[PATCH] [media] media-entity: fix backlink removal on __media_entity_remove_link()

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

 



The logic is testing if num_links==0 at the wrong place. Due to
that, a backlink may be kept without removal, causing KASAN
to complain about usage after free during either entity or
link removal.
