4.14-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Stephan Mueller <smueller@xxxxxxxxxx> commit eea0d3ea7546961f69f55b26714ac8fd71c7c020 upstream. During freeing of the internal buffers used by the DRBG, set the pointer to NULL. It is possible that the context with the freed buffers is reused. In case of an error during initialization where the pointers do not yet point to allocated memory, the NULL value prevents a double free.
