[v3,15/36] libsepol: zero member before potential dereference

Commit Message

Christian Göttsche Dec. 9, 2021, 4:49 p.m. UTC

The `next` member might be checked against NULL and dereferenced before
it gets assigned, due to jumps from failure gotos to the cleanup
section.

    ==31017==ERROR: AddressSanitizer: SEGV on unknown address (pc 0x000000579654 bp 0x7ffd3a07d110 sp 0x7ffd3a07d000 T0)
    ==31017==The signal is caused by a READ memory access.
    ==31017==Hint: this fault was caused by a dereference of a high value address (see register values below).  Disassemble the provided pc to learn which register was used.
