CWE-476
NULL Pointer Dereference
Publication date:

Description
The memory allocation function ACPI_ALLOCATE_ZEROED does not guarantee a<br />
successful allocation, but the subsequent code directly dereferences the<br />
pointer that receives it, which may lead to null pointer dereference.<br />
<br />
To fix this issue, a null pointer check should be added. If it is null, <br />
return exception code AE_NO_MEMORY.
