Ticket #4747: libs_libmyth_bio2jack.c-return-if-malloc-fails.patch

File libs_libmyth_bio2jack.c-return-if-malloc-fails.patch, 742 bytes (added by Erik Hovland <erik@…>, 16 years ago)

Adds a return to a null pointer check so the potentially null pointer is not dereferenced

  • libs/libmyth/bio2jack.c 

    When null is checked after dynamic allocation we need to return. If we

From: Erik Hovland <erik@hovland.org>

don't then we will attempt to dereference a null pointer and segfault.
