ima: Fix memory leak in __ima_inode_hash()
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
commit 8c1d6a0 upstream.

Commit f3cc6b2 ("ima: always measure and audit files in policy") lets
measurement or audit happen even if the file digest cannot be calculated.

As a result, iint->ima_hash could have been allocated despite
ima_collect_measurement() returning an error.

Since ima_hash belongs to a temporary inode metadata structure, declared
at the beginning of __ima_inode_hash(), just add a kfree() call if
ima_collect_measurement() returns an error different from -ENOMEM (in that
case, ima_hash should not have been allocated).
