Bug ID: 261679
Summary: libc/locale/xlocale.c: potential NULL pointer
dereference in alloc_locale()
Product: Base System
Version: CURRENT
Hardware: Any
OS: Any
Status: New
Severity: Affects Many People
Priority: ---
Component: bin
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
/usr/src/lib/libc/locale/xlocale.c, line 191
static locale_t
alloc_locale(void)
{
locale_t new = calloc(sizeof(struct _xlocale), 1);
new->header.destructor = destruct_locale;
new->monetary_locale_changed = 1;
new->numeric_locale_changed = 1;
return (new);
}
calloc() return value is not tested. Variable new is always dereferenced, even
in the (unexpected) case where it is NULL.
