[PATCH] nfc: Ensure presence of required attributes in the deactivate_target handler
From: Young Xiao
Date: Fri Jun 14 2019 - 03:16:47 EST
Check that the NFC_ATTR_TARGET_INDEX attributes (in addition to
NFC_ATTR_DEVICE_INDEX) are provided by the netlink client prior to
accessing them. This prevents potential unhandled NULL pointer dereference
exceptions which can be triggered by malicious user-mode programs,
if they omit one or both of these attributes.
