Description Alex CHEN 2017-10-17 04:20:29 UTC
Description of problem:

There are three of `goto out` at `send_brick_req`

        iobuf = iobuf_get2 (rpc->ctx->iobuf_pool, req_size);
        if (!iobuf)
                goto out;

        iobref = iobref_new ();
        if (!iobref)
                goto out;

        frame = create_frame (this, this->ctx->pool);
        if (!frame)
                goto out;

that indicates the three of them (iobuf, iobref, frame) might be null and then jumps to label `out`.

but there might be null pointer dereference after label out:
out:
        iobref_unref (iobref);
        iobuf_unref (iobuf);
        STACK_DESTROY (frame->root);

the error handling code might not work as expected.

    glusterfsd: Dereferencing the null pointer
    
    Problem: When control reaches to out, one of (iobref, iobuf, frame) can
    be null.for iobref, iobuf iobref_unref() and iobuf_unref() functions
    are called respectively, which are using GF_VALIDATE_OR_GOTO(), so
    there won't be null pointer dereference. But for frame without null
    checking STACK_DESTROY(frame->root) is called causing null pointer
    dereference.
    
    Fix: adding a line for null checking, the function
    STACK_DESTROY(frame->root) is called only when frame is not null.
