Subject: [PATCH AUTOSEL 4.9 5/8] mac80211: fix possible sta leak
Date: Thu, 29 Aug 2019 06:50:57 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190829105100.2649-5-sashal@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20190829105100.2649-1-sashal@kernel.org>

From: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

[ Upstream commit 5fd2f91ad483baffdbe798f8a08f1b41442d1e24 ]

If TDLS station addition is rejected, the sta memory is leaked.
Avoid this by moving the check before the allocation.

Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org
Fixes: 7ed5285396c2 ("mac80211: don't initiate TDLS connection if station is not associated to AP")
