[PATCH] usb: core: Prevent null pointer dereference in update_port_device_state

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

 



Currently,the function update_port_device_state gets the usb_hub from
udev->parent by calling usb_hub_to_struct_hub.
However, in case the actconfig or the maxchild is 0, the usb_hub would
be NULL and upon further accessing to get port_dev would result in null
pointer dereference.

Fix this by introducing an if check after the usb_hub is populated.
