Subject: [PATCH v2] efi_64: Fix a missing-check bug in arch/x86/platform/efi/efi_64.c
Date: Thu, 23 May 2019 08:51:33 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190523005133.GA14881@zhanggen-UX430UQ> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <CAKv+Gu_mwFpdtNZm9QMFn69+vOMTOpv9gvuhnBL2NBXvwkhXqg@mail.gmail.com>
In efi_call_phys_prolog(), save_pgd is allocated by kmalloc_array().
And it is dereferenced in the following codes. However, memory
allocation functions such as kmalloc_array() may fail. Dereferencing
this save_pgd null pointer may cause the kernel go wrong. Thus we
should check this allocation.
Further, if efi_call_phys_prolog() returns NULL, we should abort the
process in phys_efi_set_virtual_address_map(), and return EFI_ABORTED.
