6.1-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Roi Martin <jroi.martin@xxxxxxxxx> commit 66691c6e2f18d2aa4b22ffb624b9bdc97e9979e4 upstream. The add_inode_ref() function does not initialize the "name" struct when it is declared. If any of the following calls to "read_one_inode() returns NULL, dir = read_one_inode(root, parent_objectid); if (!dir) { ret = -ENOENT; goto out; } inode = read_one_inode(root, inode_objectid); if (!inode) { ret = -EIO; goto out; } then "name.name" would be freed on "out" before being initialized. out: ... kfree(name.name); This issue was reported by Coverity with CID 1526744. Fixes: e43eec81c516 ("btrfs: use struct qstr instead of name and namelen pairs") CC: stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx # 6.6+ Reviewed-by: Filipe Manana <fdmanana@xxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Roi Martin <jroi.martin@xxxxxxxxx> Reviewed-by: David Sterba <dsterba@xxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: David Sterba <dsterba@xxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- fs/btrfs/tree-log.c | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) --- a/fs/btrfs/tree-log.c +++ b/fs/btrfs/tree-log.c @@ -1372,7 +1372,7 @@ static noinline int add_inode_ref(struct struct inode *inode = NULL; unsigned long ref_ptr; unsigned long ref_end; - struct fscrypt_str name; + struct fscrypt_str name = { 0 }; int ret; int log_ref_ver = 0; u64 parent_objectid;
