Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: scsi: scsi_debug: Don't call kcalloc() if size arg is zero If the size arg to kcalloc() is zero, it returns ZERO_SIZE_PTR. Because of that, for a following NULL pointer check to work on the returned pointer, kcalloc() must not be called with the size arg equal to zero. Return early without error before the kcalloc() call if size arg is zero.
