[PATCH 4.19 238/280] mfd: sm501: Fix potential NULL pointer dereference

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

 



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

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

From: Gustavo A. R. Silva <gustavo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit ae7b8eda27b33b1f688dfdebe4d46f690a8f9162 upstream.

There is a potential NULL pointer dereference in case devm_kzalloc()
fails and returns NULL.

Fix this by adding a NULL check on *lookup*

This bug was detected with the help of Coccinelle.
