Subject[PATCH] net: key: af_key: Fix possible null-pointer dereferences in pfkey_send_policy_notify()
Date
In pfkey_send_policy_notify(), there is an if statement on line 3081 to
check whether xp is NULL:
if (xp && xp->type != XFRM_POLICY_TYPE_MAIN)

When xp is NULL, it is used by key_notify_policy() on line 3090:
key_notify_policy(xp, ...)
pfkey_xfrm_policy2msg_prep(xp) -- line 2211
pfkey_xfrm_policy2msg_size(xp) -- line 2046
for (i=0; i<xp->xfrm_nr; i++) -- line 2026
t = xp->xfrm_vec + i; -- line 2027
key_notify_policy(xp, ...)
xp_net(xp) -- line 2231
return read_pnet(&xp->xp_net); -- line 534

Thus, possible null-pointer dereferences may occur.

To fix these bugs, xp is checked before calling key_notify_policy().

These bugs are found by a static analysis tool STCheck written by us.
