Subject: [PATCH] smbfs: double free memory corruption
X-Git-Url: http://git.lede-project.org./?a=commitdiff_plain;h=1174cf730179d8f029b9e93cb9a4d5bfb08d1202;p=openwrt%2Fstaging%2Fblogic.git

[PATCH] smbfs: double free memory corruption

smbfs allocates rq_trans2buffer to handle server's multi transaction2 response
messages.  As struct smb_request may be reused, rq_trans2buffer is freed
before each new request.  However if last servers's response is not multi but
single trans2 message then new rq_trans2buffer is not allocated but last
smb_rput still tries to free it again.

To prevent this issue rq_trans2buffer pointer should be set to NULL after
kfree.
