Date: Mon, 18 Nov 2013 10:42:31 -0800 From: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@...uxfoundation.org> To: linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org Cc: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@...uxfoundation.org>, stable@...r.kernel.org, Krzysztof Mazur <krzysiek@...lesie.net>, Alan Stern <stern@...land.harvard.edu> Subject: [PATCH 3.10 21/24] usb: fix cleanup after failure in hub_configure() 3.10-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Krzysztof Mazur <krzysiek@...lesie.net> commit d0308d4b6b02597f39fc31a9bddf7bb3faad5622 upstream. If the hub_configure() fails after setting the hdev->maxchild the hub->ports might be NULL or point to uninitialized kzallocated memory causing NULL pointer dereference in hub_quiesce() during cleanup. Now after such error the hdev->maxchild is set to 0 to avoid cleanup of uninitialized ports.
