https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=261454 Bug ID: 261454 Summary: Fix a possible Null pointer dereference about svc_xprt_alloc() Product: Base System Version: Unspecified Hardware: Any OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Many People Priority: --- Component: kern Assignee: bugs@FreeBSD.org Reporter: zhou1615@umn.edu Created attachment 231294 --> https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=231294&action=edit A simple fix for this bugs In sys/rpc/svc_vc.c() file, the return value of svc_xprt_alloc() is not checked before the dereference in svc_vc_create_conn() function, svc_vc_create_backchannel() function and svc_vc_create(). svc_xprt_alloc() could return NULL on failure of allocation, which could lead to NULL pointer dereference. Fix this bugs by adding checks of svc_xprt_alloc() in all three functions.
