Subject: [PATCH net-next] devlink: Use after free in devlink_health_reporter_destroy()
Date: Wed, 23 Jan 2019 12:44:34 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190123094434.GB26018@kadam> (raw)

This calls kfree(reporter); before dereferencing reporter on the next
line when it does mutex_unlock(&reporter->devlink->lock);

Fixes: 880ee82f0313 ("devlink: Add health reporter create/destroy functionality")
