Subject[PATCH -next,v2 1/2] audit: fix possible null-pointer dereference in audit_filter_rules
Date
Fix this possible null-pointer dereference in audit_filter_rules.

If ctx is null, a null-pointer dereference will occur:
case AUDIT_SADDR_FAM:
if (ctx->sockaddr)
...
break;

audit_filter_rules() error: we previously assumed 'ctx' could be null
