[PATCH 08/10] staging: ccree: NULLify backup_info when unused

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

 



backup_info field is only allocated for decrypt code path.
The field was not nullified when not used causing a kfree
in an error handling path to attempt to free random
addresses as uncovered in stress testing.
