[PATCH 5.11 225/329] i40e: Fix use-after-free in i40e_client_subtask()

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Mon May 17 2021 - 11:39:33 EST


From: Yunjian Wang <wangyunjian@xxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 38318f23a7ef86a8b1862e5e8078c4de121960c3 ]

Currently the call to i40e_client_del_instance frees the object
pf->cinst, however pf->cinst->lan_info is being accessed after
the free. Fix this by adding the missing return.

Addresses-Coverity: ("Read from pointer after free")
Fixes: 7b0b1a6d0ac9 ("i40e: Disable iWARP VSI PETCP_ENA flag on netdev down events")
