Subject: [PATCH 1/1] selinux: fix double free
Date: Wed, 10 Jun 2020 11:10:21 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200610181021.19209-2-trix@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20200610181021.19209-1-trix@redhat.com>

From: Tom Rix <trix@redhat.com>

Clang's static analysis tool reports these double free memory errors.

security/selinux/ss/services.c:2987:4: warning: Attempt to free released memory [unix.Malloc]
                        kfree(bnames[i]);
                        ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
security/selinux/ss/services.c:2990:2: warning: Attempt to free released memory [unix.Malloc]
        kfree(bvalues);
        ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~

So improve the security_get_bools error handling by freeing these variables
and setting their return pointers to NULL and the return len to 0
