From 10c78f5854d361ded4736c1831948e0a5f67b932 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Sven Eckelmann Date: Sat, 2 Jul 2016 09:52:13 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] batman-adv: Avoid nullptr dereference in bla after vlan_insert_tag vlan_insert_tag can return NULL on errors. The bridge loop avoidance code therefore has to check the return value of vlan_insert_tag for NULL before it can safely operate on this pointer.
