From f9fe9a7d57cc289a26150e3e49943e50137cefdf Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Benno Schulenberg <bensberg@justemail.net> Date: Sat, 21 May 2016 13:50:14 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] backups: take an unlikely condition into account Between the first stat (that sets 'realexists') and the second stat (directly after), the file might have disappeared, which would mean that current_stat would be NULL. Prevent dereferencing this further down. --- src/files.c | 6 +++--- 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/files.c b/src/files.c index 0b743578..22fe6ecc 100644 --- a/src/files.c +++ b/src/files.c @@ -1801,9 +1801,9 @@ bool write_file(const char *name, FILE *f_open, bool tmp, append_type * aren't appending, prepending, or writing a selection, we backup * only if the file has not been modified by someone else since nano * opened it. */ - if (ISSET(BACKUP_FILE) && !tmp && realexists && ((append != OVERWRITE || - openfile->mark_set) || (openfile->current_stat && - openfile->current_stat->st_mtime == st.st_mtime))) { + if (ISSET(BACKUP_FILE) && !tmp && realexists && openfile->current_stat && + (append != OVERWRITE || openfile->mark_set || + openfile->current_stat->st_mtime == st.st_mtime)) { int backup_fd; FILE *backup_file; char *backupname; -- GitLab
