From 284041ef21fdf2e0d216ab6b787bc9072b4eb58a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Eric Dumazet Date: Fri, 17 May 2013 04:53:13 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] ipv6: fix possible crashes in ip6_cork_release() commit 0178b695fd6b4 ("ipv6: Copy cork options in ip6_append_data") added some code duplication and bad error recovery, leading to potential crash in ip6_cork_release() as kfree() could be called with garbage. use kzalloc() to make sure this wont happen.
