Subject: osdep/linux/ofpath: Add missing strdup() failure checks
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=07c250487fea48fb934efab2bdfe32e9339cfabf;p=thirdparty%2Fgrub.git

osdep/linux/ofpath: Add missing strdup() failure checks

Segmentation faults or undefined behaviour may result from a NULL pointer
dereference in strip_trailing_digits() and grub_util_devname_to_ofpath()
if strdup() fails. Therefore, I added a NULL check to fix this.
