[PATCH 3.16 083/233] libceph: NULL deref on crush_decode() error path

From: Ben Hutchings
Date: Sat Sep 09 2017 - 19:00:37 EST


3.16.48-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 293dffaad8d500e1a5336eeb90d544cf40d4fbd8 upstream.

If there is not enough space then ceph_decode_32_safe() does a goto bad.
We need to return an error code in that situation. The current code
returns ERR_PTR(0) which is NULL. The callers are not expecting that
and it results in a NULL dereference.

Fixes: f24e9980eb86 ("ceph: OSD client")
