From: Sergey Vidishev Date: Tue, 19 May 2015 19:02:46 +0000 (+0300) Subject: mdadm: monitor: fix nullptr dereference when get_md_name() returns NULL X-Git-Tag: mdadm-3.3.3~44 X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=1e08717f0b7856b389e9d5eb2dc330d146636183;p=thirdparty%2Fmdadm.git mdadm: monitor: fix nullptr dereference when get_md_name() returns NULL Function add_new_arrays() expects that function get_md_name() should return pointer to devname, but also get_md_name() may return NULL. So check the pointer before use it in add_new_arrays().
