| Subject | [PATCH] Smack: fix a dereference before null check on sock->sk |
| Message-ID | <t8W1k-66e-13@gated-at.bofh.it> |
From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@canonical.com>
The initialisation of pointer ssp is from a dereference on sock->sk
before sock-sk is null checked, hence there is a potential for a
null pointer deference. Fix this by moving the assignment of ssp
to just before it is used in the call to smk_ipv6_check.
Detected with CoverityScan, CID#1324196 ("Dereference before null check")

In the hope of reducing the ifdef forrest:
you could move the struct smack_known *rsp; and struct socket_smack *ssp; into the block like:
{
struct smack_known *rsp=smack_ipv6host_label(sip);
if (rsp != NULL) {
struct socket_smack *ssp= sock->sk->sk_security;
rc = smk_ipv6_check(ssp->smk_out, rsp, sip,
SMK_CONNECTING);
}
}
just my 2 cents ...

I can't say that I'm proud of that chunk of code.
A real clean-up is on my todo list, and I would happily
entertain patches.
