From d7f59dc4642ce2fc7b79fcd4ec02ffce7f21eb02 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Paul Moore Date: Fri, 27 Feb 2009 15:00:03 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] selinux: Fix a panic in selinux_netlbl_inode_permission() Rick McNeal from LSI identified a panic in selinux_netlbl_inode_permission() caused by a certain sequence of SUNRPC operations. The problem appears to be due to the lack of NULL pointer checking in the function; this patch adds the pointer checks so the function will exit safely in the cases where the socket is not completely initialized.
