From: Dan Carpenter Date: Wed, 14 Jun 2017 10:35:37 +0000 (+0300) Subject: xfrm: NULL dereference on allocation failure X-Git-Tag: v4.1.43~84 X-Git-Url: http://git.hungrycats.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=1a6224f1a27f6e4946df3037530b0eb8c7e2ba7b;p=linux xfrm: NULL dereference on allocation failure [ Upstream commit e747f64336fc15e1c823344942923195b800aa1e ] The default error code in pfkey_msg2xfrm_state() is -ENOBUFS. We added a new call to security_xfrm_state_alloc() which sets "err" to zero so there several places where we can return ERR_PTR(0) if kmalloc() fails. The caller is expecting error pointers so it leads to a NULL dereference. Fixes: df71837d5024 ("[LSM-IPSec]: Security association restriction.")
