[PATCH 4.19 09/61] nfc: Ensure presence of required attributes in the deactivate_target handler

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

 



From: Young Xiao <92siuyang@xxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 385097a3675749cbc9e97c085c0e5dfe4269ca51 ]

Check that the NFC_ATTR_TARGET_INDEX attributes (in addition to
NFC_ATTR_DEVICE_INDEX) are provided by the netlink client prior to
accessing them. This prevents potential unhandled NULL pointer dereference
exceptions which can be triggered by malicious user-mode programs,
if they omit one or both of these attributes.
