From cd27b96bc13841ee7af25837a6ae86fee87273d6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: WANG Cong Date: Mon, 13 Feb 2017 11:13:16 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] kcm: fix a null pointer dereference in kcm_sendmsg() In commit 98e3862ca2b1 ("kcm: fix 0-length case for kcm_sendmsg()") I tried to avoid skb allocation for 0-length case, but missed a check for NULL pointer in the non EOR case.
