From e2a87785aab0dac190ac89be6a9ba955e2c634f2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Gaosheng Cui Date: Thu, 17 Nov 2022 11:44:23 +0800 Subject: [PATCH] hwmon: (ibmpex) Fix possible UAF when ibmpex_register_bmc() fails Smatch report warning as follows: drivers/hwmon/ibmpex.c:509 ibmpex_register_bmc() warn: '&data->list' not removed from list If ibmpex_find_sensors() fails in ibmpex_register_bmc(), data will be freed, but data->list will not be removed from driver_data.bmc_data, then list traversal may cause UAF. Fix by removeing it from driver_data.bmc_data before free().
