Subject: [PATCH] Fixed segfault in rpc.mountd
Date: Wed, 26 Jan 2011 07:57:35 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1296046655-20246-1-git-send-email-steved@redhat.com> (raw)

A unallocated piece of memory, instead of a NULL point, was being
used to initialize a ->next point in the mount link list which
caused a segfault after a few remote accesses via the showmount
command.
