[PATCH] staging: wicl1000: fix dereference after free in wilc_wlan_cleanup()

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

 



The wilc_wlan_cleanup() function iterates over the list of transmission
buffers freeing all of them and then iterates over the receive buffers
list to free all of them as well.

But on the receive loop a pointer to struct txq_entry_t is dereferenced
instead of the pointer to a struct rxq_entry_t. This not only causes a
dereference to a pointer already freed but also leaks the memory in the
struct rxq_entry_t buffer.

Fixes: c5c77ba18ea6 ("staging: wilc1000: Add SDIO/SPI 802.11 driver")
