Subject: Re: [PATCH v3] staging: rtl8723bs: os_dep: avoid NULL pointer dereference in rtw_cbuf_alloc
Date: Tue, 14 Apr 2026 11:33:22 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <ad370g5G9eUWSX_E@stanley.mountain> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <ad34vKH8FhDIWijv@ashevche-desk.local>

Really _obj() can't be ZERO_SIZE_PTR either, or if they are then it's
very difficult to dereference them since they don't have any struct
members.

The main way that ZERO_SIZE_PTR bugs show up is with strings and NUL
terminators.

regards,
dan carpenter
