Subject: [PATCH][next] cifsd: fix kfree of uninitialized pointer oid
Date: Thu, 10 Jun 2021 17:46:03 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210610164603.554691-1-colin.king@canonical.com> (raw)

From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@canonical.com>

Currently function ksmbd_neg_token_init_mech_type can kfree an
uninitialized pointer oid when the call to asn1_oid_decode fails
when vlen is out of range. All the other failure cases in
function asn1_oid_decode set *oid to NULL on an error, so fix the
issue by ensuring the vlen out of range error also nullifies the
pointer.

Fixes: 8bae4419ce63 ("cifsd: add goto fail in neg_token_init_mech_type()")
Addresses-Coverity: ("Uninitialized pointer read")
