[PATCH 5.10 30/92] net/mlx5: Fix uninitialized variable bug in outlen_write()

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

 



From: YueHaibing <yuehaibing@xxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 3f5769a074c13d8f08455e40586600419e02a880 ]

If sscanf() return 0, outlen is uninitialized and used in kzalloc(),
this is unexpected. We should return -EINVAL if the string is invalid.

Fixes: e126ba97dba9 ("mlx5: Add driver for Mellanox Connect-IB adapters")
