From 39416c5872db69859e867fa250b9cbb3f1e0d185 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Wenwen Wang Date: Mon, 15 Apr 2019 12:58:06 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] udf: fix an uninitialized read bug and remove dead code In udf_lookup(), the pointer 'fi' is a local variable initialized by the return value of the function call udf_find_entry(). However, if the macro 'UDF_RECOVERY' is defined, this variable will become uninitialized if the else branch is not taken, which can potentially cause incorrect results in the following execution. To fix this issue, this patch drops the whole code in the ifdef 'UDF_RECOVERY' region, as it is dead code.
