Subject: [PATCH] loader/i386/efi/linux: Avoid a use-after-free in the linuxefi
|
|

loader

In some error paths in grub_cmd_linux, the pointer to lh may be
|
|
|
e28c09 |
dereferenced after the buffer it points to has been freed. There aren't
|
|
|
e28c09 |
any security implications from this because nothing else uses the
|
|
|
e28c09 |
allocator after the buffer is freed and before the pointer is
|
|
|
e28c09 |
dereferenced, but fix it anyway.
