[PATCH 3.18 02/59] watchdog: pcwd_usb: fix NULL-deref at probe

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

 



3.18-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Johan Hovold <johan@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 46c319b848268dab3f0e7c4a5b6e9146d3bca8a4 upstream.

Make sure to check the number of endpoints to avoid dereferencing a
NULL-pointer should a malicious device lack endpoints.
