Subject: [PATCH mtd-utils] ffsX-utils: Fix integer overflow in jffs2dump.c
Date: Sat, 14 Dec 2024 16:34:53 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20241214133453.102014-1-ant.v.moryakov@gmail.com> (raw)

Report of the static analyzer:
Pointer 'path', returned from function 'xstrdup' at jffs2reader.c:690, may be NULL and is dereferenced at jffs2reader.c:692.

Corrections explained:
After calling xstrdup(p), a path == NULL check has been added. This prevents a possible NULL pointer dereference in the event of a memory allocation error.

Triggers found by static analyzer Svace.
