[PATCH] cfg80211: Fix memory leak in cfg80211_inform_single_bss_frame_data

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

 



In the implementation of cfg80211_inform_single_bss_frame_data() the
allocated memory for ies is leaked in case of an error. Release ies if
cfg80211_bss_update() fails.

Fixes: 2a5193119269 ("cfg80211/nl80211: scanning (and mac80211 update to use it)")
