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

 



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

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

From: Rickard Strandqvist <rickard_strandqvist@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 8321cf2596d283821acc466377c2b85bcd3422b7 upstream.

There is otherwise a risk of a possible null pointer dereference.

Was largely found by using a static code analysis program called cppcheck.
