Re: [PATCH] NFC: st21nfca,st-nci: fix use of uninitialized variables in error path

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

 



Hi Nicolas,

Thanks for your fix.
I have slit your patch for st21nfca and st-nci in order to propagate them in earlier kernel revision through stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.
I will rework st-nci patch for kernel revision < 4.2

Best Regards
Christophe

st21nfca_hci_load_session() calls kfree_skb() on unitialized variables
skb_pipe_info and skb_pipe_list if the call to nfc_hci_connect_gate()
failed.  Reword the error path to not use these variables when they are
not initialized.  While at it, there seemed to be a memory leak because
skb_pipe_info was only freed once, after the for-loop, even though
several ones were created by nfc_hci_send_cmd.

st_nci_hci_load_session() is similar to st21nfca_hci_load_session(), so
rework this function too.

Fixes: ec03ff1a8f9a ("NFC: st21nfca: Remove skb_pipe_list and skb_pipe_info
useless allocation")

As I haven't got the hardware needed to perform tests, I only compile-tested
this patch.

Moreover I may then have missed something important for example in the way
the memory is managed (I did not understand why skb_pipe_info was not freed
in the for loop).
