From 4ff96fb52c6964ad42e0a878be8f86a2e8052ddd Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Miroslav Benes Date: Fri, 19 Jul 2019 14:28:39 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] livepatch: Nullify obj->mod in klp_module_coming()'s error path klp_module_coming() is called for every module appearing in the system. It sets obj->mod to a patched module for klp_object obj. Unfortunately it leaves it set even if an error happens later in the function and the patched module is not allowed to be loaded. klp_is_object_loaded() uses obj->mod variable and could currently give a wrong return value. The bug is probably harmless as of now.
