[PATCH] net-bridge: fix unsafe dereference of potential null ptr in __vlan_del()

From: Alexander Sapozhnikov
Date: Fri Feb 17 2023 - 08:17:13 EST


After having been compared to NULL value at br_vlan.c:399,
pointer 'p' is passed as 1st parameter in call to function
'nbp_vlan_set_vlan_dev_state' at br_vlan.c:420,
where it is dereferenced at br_vlan.c:1722.

Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with SVACE.
