Date: Mon, 5 May 2014 21:02:37 -0700 From: David Matlack <dmatlack@...gle.com> To: gregkh@...uxfoundation.org Cc: liodot@...il.com, charrer@...critech.com, linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org, devel@...verdev.osuosl.org, David Matlack <dmatlack@...gle.com> Subject: [PATCH 7/7] staging: slicoss: fix use-after-free bug in slic_entry_remove This patch fixes a use-after-free bug that causes a null pointer dereference in slic_entry_halt. Since unregister_netdev() will ultimately call slic_entry_halt (the net_device ndo_stop() virtual function for this device), we should call it before freeing the memory used by slic_entry_halt.
