Subject: [PATCH net v2] net: genl: fix error path memory leak in policy dumping
Date: Tue, 16 Aug 2022 09:19:39 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220816161939.577583-1-kuba@kernel.org> (raw)

If construction of the array of policies fails when recording
non-first policy we need to unwind.

netlink_policy_dump_add_policy() itself also needs fixing as
it currently gives up on error without recording the allocated
pointer in the pstate pointer.

Reported-by: syzbot+dc54d9ba8153b216cae0@syzkaller.appspotmail.com
Fixes: 50a896cf2d6f ("genetlink: properly support per-op policy dumping")
