As several have said, initialize all pointers to NULL where you declare them. Although IDK why it would assume that the poiter would be NULL, more likely it would be some garbage value. If the compiler finds a pointer dereference, it treats that pointer as nonnull. A bug has been found in the IPsec parts of ip_output.c that can lead to NULL pointer dereference in getsockopt(). If we pass a big size to PyMem_Malloc, it will return NULL.

But mindlessly checking for NULL with an if statement to avoid dereferencing the pointer is a lazy approach. Dereferencing a null pointer always results in undefined behavior and can cause crashes. The following call sequences lead to NULL pointer dereference: 1) iscsit_setup_scsi_cmd transport_lookup_cmd_lun <-- lookup fails. You can perform an explicit check for NULL for all pointers returned by functions that can return NULL, and when parameters are passed to the function. A null pointer constant is an integer constant expression with the value 0 or such an expression casted to void*. A NULL pointer dereference occurs when the application dereferences a pointer that it expects to be valid, but is NULL, typically causing a crash or exit.

Since it's not pointing to anything (because that's what null means), that's an error. somePointer : someOtherPointer; EDIT: Try initializing src to NULL. As a result, this noncompliant code example is vulnerable to a null pointer dereference exploit, because null pointer dereferencing can be permitted on several platforms, for example, by using mmap(2) with the MAP_FIXED flag on Linux and Mac OS X, or by using the shmat() POSIX function with the SHM_RND flag . to be the null pointer constant. doas: Fix null-pointer dereference.

Since it's not pointing to anything (because that's what null means), that's an error. somePointer : someOtherPointer; EDIT: Try initializing src to NULL. As a result, this noncompliant code example is vulnerable to a null pointer dereference exploit, because null pointer dereferencing can be permitted on several platforms, for example, by using mmap(2) with the MAP_FIXED flag on Linux and Mac OS X, or by using the shmat() POSIX function with the SHM_RND flag . to be the null pointer constant. doas: Fix null-pointer dereference.

Most likely, itâs printing 0 which is the typical internal null pointer value but again it can vary depending on the C compiler/platform.
