Subject: [PATCH next] audit: fix potential double free on error path from fsnotify_add_inode_mark
Date: Mon, 22 Aug 2022 10:29:05 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220822022905.1949007-1-cuigaosheng1@huawei.com> (raw)

Audit_alloc_mark() assign pathname to audit_mark->path, on error path
from fsnotify_add_inode_mark(), fsnotify_put_mark will free memory
of audit_mark->path, but the caller of audit_alloc_mark will free
the pathname again, so there will be double free problem.

Fix this by resetting audit_mark->path to NULL pointer on error path
from fsnotify_add_inode_mark().

Fixes: 7b1293234084d ("fsnotify: Add group pointer in fsnotify_init_mark()")
