From 37443b3508b8cce6832f8d25cb4550b2f7801f50 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Keita Suzuki Date: Mon, 25 Apr 2022 06:37:38 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] tracing: Fix potential double free in create_var_ref() commit 99696a2592bca641eb88cc9a80c90e591afebd0f upstream. In create_var_ref(), init_var_ref() is called to initialize the fields of variable ref_field, which is allocated in the previous function call to create_hist_field(). Function init_var_ref() allocates the corresponding fields such as ref_field->system, but frees these fields when the function encounters an error. The caller later calls destroy_hist_field() to conduct error handling, which frees the fields and the variable itself. This results in double free of the fields which are already freed in the previous function. Fix this by storing NULL to the corresponding fields when they are freed in init_var_ref().
