Subject: crypto: af_alg - fix NULL pointer dereference in
From: Eric Biggers <ebiggers@xxxxxxxxxx>
commit 887207ed9e5812ed9239b6d07185a2d35dda91db upstream.
af_alg_free_areq_sgls()
If allocating the ->tsgl member of 'struct af_alg_async_req' failed,
during cleanup we dereferenced the NULL ->tsgl pointer in
af_alg_free_areq_sgls(), because ->tsgl_entries was nonzero.
Fix it by only freeing the ->tsgl list if it is non-NULL.
This affected both algif_skcipher and algif_aead.
Fixes: e870456d8e7c ("crypto: algif_skcipher - overhaul memory management")
Fixes: d887c52d6ae4 ("crypto: algif_aead - overhaul memory management")
