From 152669bd3cd2407d6f556009b95ee249c0c1a462 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dexuan Cui Date: Thu, 2 Mar 2017 13:00:53 +0000 Subject: netvsc: fix use-after-free in netvsc_change_mtu() 'nvdev' is freed in rndis_filter_device_remove -> netvsc_device_remove -> free_netvsc_device, so we mustn't access it, before it's re-created in rndis_filter_device_add -> netvsc_device_add.
