Upstream-Status: Backport Backport patch to fix CVE-2016-7423 from: http://git.qemu.org/?p=qemu.git;a=commit;h=670e56d3ed CVE: CVE-2016-7423 Signed-off-by: Kai Kang --- From 670e56d3ed2918b3861d9216f2c0540d9e9ae0d5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Li Qiang Date: Mon, 12 Sep 2016 18:14:11 +0530 Subject: [PATCH] scsi: mptsas: use g_new0 to allocate MPTSASRequest object When processing IO request in mptsas, it uses g_new to allocate a 'req' object. If an error occurs before 'req->sreq' is allocated, It could lead to an OOB write in mptsas_free_request function. Use g_new0 to avoid it.
