Subject: [B.A.T.M.A.N.] [PATCH maint 2/2] batman-adv: Avoid nullptr dereference in dat after vlan_insert_tag
Date: Sat, 2 Jul 2016 09:52:14 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1467445934-13951-2-git-send-email-sven@narfation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1467445934-13951-1-git-send-email-sven@narfation.org>
vlan_insert_tag can return NULL on errors. The distributed arp table code
therefore has to check the return value of vlan_insert_tag for NULL before
it can safely operate on this pointer.
Fixes: 53c6c262a581 ("batman-adv: tag locally generated ARP reply if needed")
Signed-off-by: Sven Eckelmann <sven@narfation.org>
