Message-Id: <20171212123449.069589894@linuxfoundation.org> Date: Tue, 12 Dec 2017 13:44:52 +0100 From: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@...uxfoundation.org> To: linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org Cc: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@...uxfoundation.org>, stable@...r.kernel.org, Ben Hutchings <ben.hutchings@...ethink.co.uk>, Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@...el.com>, Sasha Levin <alexander.levin@...izon.com> Subject: [PATCH 4.14 112/164] mac80211_hwsim: Fix memory leak in hwsim_new_radio_nl() 4.14-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Ben Hutchings <ben.hutchings@...ethink.co.uk> [ Upstream commit 67bd52386125ce1159c0581cbcd2740addf33cd4 ] hwsim_new_radio_nl() now copies the name attribute in order to add a null-terminator. mac80211_hwsim_new_radio() (indirectly) copies it again into the net_device structure, so the first copy is not used or freed later. Free the first copy before returning.
