From c250e8f5566f2e1a0ea177837520eff8e59c0b7d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Muhammad Usama Anjum Date: Thu, 1 Apr 2021 17:54:43 +0900 Subject: [PATCH] cifsd: fix memory leak when loop ends Memory is being allocated and if veto_list is zero, the loop breaks without cleaning up the allocated memory. In this patch, the length check has been moved before allocation. If loop breaks, the memory isn't allocated in the first place. Thus the memory is being protected from leaking.
