Subject: [PATCH v2] cifs: smb2pdu: Fix potential NULL pointer dereference
Date: Tue, 3 Apr 2018 16:00:40 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180403210039.GA28968@embeddedor.com> (raw)

tcon->ses is being dereferenced before it is null checked, hence
there is a potential null pointer dereference.

Fix this by moving the pointer dereference after tcon->ses has
been properly null checked.

Addresses-Coverity-ID: 1467426 ("Dereference before null check")
Fixes: 93012bf98416 ("cifs: add server->vals->header_preamble_size")
