[PATCH 6.1 118/798] scsi: elx: libefc: Fix potential use after free in efc_nport_vport_del()

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

 



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

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

From: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@xxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 2e4b02fad094976763af08fec2c620f4f8edd9ae ]

The kref_put() function will call nport->release if the refcount drops to
zero.  The nport->release release function is _efc_nport_free() which frees
"nport".  But then we dereference "nport" on the next line which is a use
after free.  Re-order these lines to avoid the use after free.
