From a6eed4ab5dd4bfb696c1a3f49742b8d1846a66a0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jia-Ju Bai Date: Tue, 30 Jul 2019 14:38:51 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] fs: afs: Fix a possible null-pointer dereference in afs_put_read() In afs_read_dir(), there is an if statement on line 255 to check whether req->pages is NULL: if (!req->pages) goto error; If req->pages is NULL, afs_put_read() on line 337 is executed. In afs_put_read(), req->pages[i] is used on line 195. Thus, a possible null-pointer dereference may occur in this case. To fix this possible bug, an if statement is added in afs_put_read() to check req->pages. This bug is found by a static analysis tool STCheck written by us.
