6.11-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Su Hui <suhui@xxxxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 19ebc1e6cab334a8193398d4152deb76019b5d34 ] Clang static checker(scan-build) warning: fs/smb/client/smb2ops.c:1304:2: Attempt to free released memory. 1304 | kfree(ea); | ^~~~~~~~~ There is a double free in such case: 'ea is initialized to NULL' -> 'first successful memory allocation for ea' -> 'something failed, goto sea_exit' -> 'first memory release for ea' -> 'goto replay_again' -> 'second goto sea_exit before allocate memory for ea' -> 'second memory release for ea resulted in double free'. Re-initialie 'ea' to NULL near to the replay_again label, it can fix this double free problem. Fixes: 4f1fffa23769 ("cifs: commands that are retried should have replay flag set") Reviewed-by: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@xxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Su Hui <suhui@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Steve French <stfrench@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin <sashal@xxxxxxxxxx> --- fs/smb/client/smb2ops.c | 3 ++- 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/fs/smb/client/smb2ops.c b/fs/smb/client/smb2ops.c index e9be7b43bb6b8..b9e332443b0d9 100644 --- a/fs/smb/client/smb2ops.c +++ b/fs/smb/client/smb2ops.c @@ -1156,7 +1156,7 @@ smb2_set_ea(const unsigned int xid, struct cifs_tcon *tcon, struct cifs_fid fid; unsigned int size[1]; void *data[1]; - struct smb2_file_full_ea_info *ea = NULL; + struct smb2_file_full_ea_info *ea; struct smb2_query_info_rsp *rsp; int rc, used_len = 0; int retries = 0, cur_sleep = 1; @@ -1177,6 +1177,7 @@ smb2_set_ea(const unsigned int xid, struct cifs_tcon *tcon, if (!utf16_path) return -ENOMEM; + ea = NULL; resp_buftype[0] = resp_buftype[1] = resp_buftype[2] = CIFS_NO_BUFFER; vars = kzalloc(sizeof(*vars), GFP_KERNEL); if (!vars) { -- 2.43.0
