From 2aa69b04d8173b18a0e3492e0c8f2f7fabdf642d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Guy Harris Date: Thu, 28 Sep 2023 00:37:57 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] Have sock_initaddress() return the list of addrinfo structures or NULL. Its return address is currently 0 for success and -1 for failure, with a pointer to the first element of the list of struct addrinfos returned through a pointer on success; change it to return that pointer on success and NULL on failure. That way, we don't have to worry about what happens to the pointer pointeed to by the argument in question on failure; we know that we got NULL back if no struct addrinfos were found because getaddrinfo() failed. Thus, we know that we have something to free iff sock_initaddress() returned a pointer to that something rather than returning NULL. This avoids a double-free in some cases. This is apparently CVE-2023-40400.
