From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@canonical.com> stable inclusion from stable-v4.19.213 commit 7f642b93710b6b1119bdff90be01e6b5a2a5d669 category: bugfix bugzilla: https://gitee.com/openeuler/kernel/issues/I9SU4D CVE: CVE-2021-47445 Reference: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/commit/?id=... -------------------------------- commit 2133c4fc8e1348dcb752f267a143fe2254613b34 upstream. The initialization of pointer dev dereferences pointer edp before edp is null checked, so there is a potential null pointer deference issue. Fix this by only dereferencing edp after edp has been null checked.
