Subject: [PATCH] udf: NULL dereference at udf_symlink() on error
Date: Mon, 23 Mar 2015 02:11:49 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1427091109-1642-1-git-send-email-changwoo.m@gmail.com> (raw)

There is no check for udf_tgetblk(), which could return NULL, in udf_symlink(). 
So there is a possibility of returning NULL under heavy memory pressure and 
possibility of NULL dereference.
