Subject: [PATCH 2/4] libsepol/cil: fix NULL pointer dereference when using an unused alias
Date: Wed, 30 Dec 2020 21:11:39 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20201230201141.3455302-2-nicolas.iooss@m4x.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20201230201141.3455302-1-nicolas.iooss@m4x.org>

OSS-Fuzz found a NULL pointer dereference when the CIL compiler tries to
compile a policy where a categoryalias references an unused
categoryalias:

    $ echo '(categoryalias c0)(categoryalias c1)(categoryaliasactual c0 c1)' > tmp.cil
    $ secil tmp.cil
    Segmentation fault (core dumped)

In such a case, a1 can become NULL in cil_resolve_alias_to_actual().
Add a check to report an error when this occurs. Now the error message
is:

    Alias c0 references an unused alias c1 at tmp.cil:1

Fixes: https://bugs.chromium.org/p/oss-fuzz/issues/detail?id=28471
