Function init_var_ref() allocates the corresponding fields such as ref_field-&gt;system, but frees these fields when the function encounters an error. The caller later calls destroy_hist_field() to conduct error handling, which frees the fields and the variable itself. This results in double free of the fields which are already freed in the previous function.</p> <p>Fix this by storing NULL to the corresponding fields when they are freed in init_var_ref().</p> <p><strong>Affected:</strong> Linux</p> <p>In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:</p> <p>tracing: Fix potential double free in create_var_ref()</p> <p>In create_var_ref(), init_var_ref() is called to initialize the fields of variable ref_field, which is allocated in the previous function call to create_hist_field().
