Subject: script/execute: Add a NULL check after grub_calloc() call
X-Git-Tag: grub-2.14~20
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=c0669af6a86b57283087cdea2244332eb892f21c;p=thirdparty%2Fgrub.git

script/execute: Add a NULL check after grub_calloc() call

... in gettext_append() to handle allocation errors. This prevents NULL
pointer dereference and stops crashes during string translation.
