Subject: [PATCH] libsepol: silence potential NULL pointer dereference warning
When find_avtab_node() is called with key->specified & AVTAB_XPERMS and
xperms=NULL, xperms is being dereferenced. This is detected as a
"NULL pointer dereference issue" by static analyzers.
Even though it does not make much sense to call find_avtab_node() in a
way which triggers the NULL pointer dereference issue, static analyzers
have a hard time with calls such as:
node = find_avtab_node(handle, avtab, &avkey, cond, NULL);
... where xperms=NULL.
So, make the function report an error instead of crashing.
Here is an example of report from clang's static analyzer:
