From: Tom Rix <trix@xxxxxxxxxx> Clang static analysis reports this double free error security/selinux/ss/conditional.c:139:2: warning: Attempt to free released memory [unix.Malloc] kfree(node->expr.nodes); ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ When cond_read_node fails, it calls cond_node_destroy which frees the node but does not poison the entry in the node list. So when it returns to its caller cond_read_list, cond_read_list deletes the partial list. The latest entry in the list will be deleted twice. So instead of freeing the node in cond_read_node, let list freeing in code_read_list handle the freeing the problem node along with all of the the earlier nodes.
