From: Eric Biggers ebiggers@google.com
commit 887207ed9e5812ed9239b6d07185a2d35dda91db upstream.
af_alg_free_areq_sgls()
If allocating the ->tsgl member of 'struct af_alg_async_req' failed, during cleanup we dereferenced the NULL ->tsgl pointer in af_alg_free_areq_sgls(), because ->tsgl_entries was nonzero.
Fix it by only freeing the ->tsgl list if it is non-NULL.
This affected both algif_skcipher and algif_aead.
