From: Eric Biggers Date: Wed, 31 Jan 2018 07:11:24 +0000 (-0800) Subject: binder: check for binder_thread allocation failure in binder_poll() X-Git-Tag: v4.9.84~108 X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=4be5a281048964854c0b1c145e57597e7116ea9f;p=thirdparty%2Fkernel%2Fstable.git binder: check for binder_thread allocation failure in binder_poll() commit f88982679f54f75daa5b8eff3da72508f1e7422f upstream. If the kzalloc() in binder_get_thread() fails, binder_poll() dereferences the resulting NULL pointer. Fix it by returning POLLERR if the memory allocation failed. This bug was found by syzkaller using fault injection.
