[PATCH 3.18 02/90] jffs2: free jffs2_sb_info through jffs2_kill_sb()

[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: Hou Tao <houtao1@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 92e2921f7eee63450a5f953f4b15dc6210219430 upstream.

When an invalid mount option is passed to jffs2, jffs2_parse_options()
will fail and jffs2_sb_info will be freed, but then jffs2_sb_info will
be used (use-after-free) and freeed (double-free) in jffs2_kill_sb().

Fix it by removing the buggy invocation of kfree() when getting invalid
mount options.
